There is an increasing demand for Human Factors Engineering of aircrew tasks during the design and development of future aircraft cockpits and aircrew workstations. The extensive data-base of experimental research literature on human performance is of marginal value in aiding the design process. This paper outlines several techniques associated with the analysis and description of aircrew activities for use in prospective studies of aircrew task design. The techniques of protocol analysis, eye-movement monitoring and task analysis, amongst others, are reviewed. The underlying issue of cognitive complexity in the management of aircrew interfaces is addressed.
