The report constitutes the proceedings of a workshop on Aircraft Attitude Awareness held at WPAFB, OH 8-10 Oct 1985. Purpose of the workshop was to address the problem of loss of aircraft attitude awareness, primarily in the single-seat fighter attack aircraft, to recommend practical fixes to current operational aircraft and training measures to overcome their deficiencies; and to recommend initiatives to ensure that problems in the pilot-vehicle-interface of present aircraft be considered in the design of future aircraft, e.g., ATF. There were a number of findings and recommendations to prevent collisions with the surface, to improve displays for orientation and other critical control parameters, to improve aircraft for the enhanced night-weather role, to improve training, and to improve communications. Keywords: Ground collision avoidance system; Primary dedicated attitude display; Head-up display improvements for attitude; Enhanced night/weather role; Training use of HUD and use of vision; Automatic recovery systems; Virtual helmet mounted display technology; G-limiter by-pass; Non focal visual mode sensory cues; Three-dimensional sound; Standby attitude indicator; Noise cancelling headset; Callout of selected parameters on request.
