In this report, three prototype displays that are contrasted for aircraft navigation and tactical hazard awareness: a conventional 2D coplanar display, In implementing these for Experiment 1, the immersed display was coupled with a global exocentric view of the airspace. In Experiment 1, thirty pilots flew with each of the displays around an airspace populated by waypoints, hazards and traffic. Performance measures revealed the anticipated costs and benefits of each display type. In Experiment 2, cognitive engineering principles were applied to remediate the weaknesses of each display type. Analysis of performance of 27 additional participants in flight path tracking and hazard awareness measures revealed success in application of the cognitive engineering principles. We also briefly describe the procedures employed in a third experiment in which additional design changes were examined.
