Modern control and display technology has already been able to reduce significantly the workload associated with piloting all forms of airborne vehicles. However, increased demands on the pilot make it desirable to establish how automation may further reduce both the cognitive and decision-making workload of the pilot. There is evidence that under high workload, in poor visibility, or for maximum combat capability, the pilot could perform better with control inputs more directly related to the outputs over which he needs control. There are also basic questions as to what information the pilot really needs, what control and management functions can be automated, and what functions must the pilot retain to perform his task satisfactorily in relation to different mission aspects. AGARD GCP/WG.07 Members were asked to identify the most promising options for improved automation at the man-machine interface of flight vehicles and present their findings in this Advisory Report.
