The research program described evaluated the pilot assurance derived from an Airborne Traffic Situation Display (ATSD), assurance being defined in terms of the pilot's awareness of his traffic environment. Forty-four professional pilots participated in a number of simulation experiments designed to measure pilot awareness using party line voice communications and a possible future system employing the ATSD. Tests were run with and without an in-trail spacing task and with one and two-man flight crews. A pilot's ability to detect and react to conflict situations was measured during both single and parallel runway operations. The effects of conflict alarms and the frequency of updating information were also examined. All experiments were conducted in a fixed-based simulator configured as a Boeing 707.
