This study was prompted by the FAA Advisory Circular (AC) No. 61-126 (1997), which authorized the use of a Personal Computer Aviation Training Device (PCATD) to be used for 10 of the 15 hours authorized for an approved ground training device. The advisory circular, however, did not authorize the use of PCATDs for Instrument Proficiency Checks (IPCs). The study was supported under Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) cooperative agreement DFTA2001-G-037 with the Institute of Aviation, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, during September 2001-November 2004. The study was sponsored by FAA Headquarters Flight Standards Service, General Aviation and Commercial Division. Dennis B. Beringer, Civil Aerospace Medical Institute (CAMI), served as the contracting officers technical representative for FAA-CAMI. This report is Volume 1 of a two volume final report and is in the process of review and approval and is not at present an official FAA document. Consequently, the views expressed herein do not necessarily represent official FAA positions. Volume 2 will cover results obtained from objective pilot performance measures employed in the project. Semi-annual, annual, and published reports and presentations of the work including reports of the airborne flight data recorder (FDR) and development of objective pilot performance measures are listed in this document.
