This investigation is aimed at assessing the flight crew decision making process for take-offs conducted both with and without a predictive Take-Off Performance Monitor (TOPM) display. The NLR moving base Research Flight Simulator, programmed with a Fokker 100 dynamic model was employed. An important aspect of the study was the scrutiny of crew procedures. The use of the TOPM display showed a potential safety benefit in a medium acceleration deficit in the presence of an engine failure; and a high acceleration deficit. In cases where performance was about normal, and sudden failure developed at some point in the take-off, TOPM did not offer any significant safety benefits over non TOPM take-offs.
