The problem of human error in navigation has received a great deal of attention in recent years, but that attention has not resulted in much constructive effort. The 6 FAA workshops in 1980-82 aimed at defining the scope and nature of the problems have not yet resulted in an adequate definition of the problems nor in a program of action. This paper will argue that the reduction of human error in aviation is quite possible, that it does not require new knowledge about human performance, and that it cannot be achieved by automating humans out of the system functions. What is required is a better system design activity which includes human performance knowledge and which transcends customary working divisions and design assumptions.
