The method developed to certificate the BAe 146 for operation by a minimum crew of two pilots to regulations is described. The method is based primarily on subjective assessment of workload but employs objective data to support that assessment. All the data were collected from one flying phase and no flight or ground simulator assessments were performed, neither were the results correlated with any previous evaluation. The flight test evaluation used a variety of assessment methods, including practical demonstration, qualitative and quantative subjective evaluation, subjective comparison with similar aircraft types, and objective physiological evaluation. All confirmed that the crew workload on the BAe 146 was compatible with operation by a minimum crew of 2 pilots. This method is briefly discussed.
