The operating accuracy of the tractor driver directly affects the transportation efficiency and the airport security. The research of the human reliability is an important way to measure task performance and reduce errors. The main content of the study is to analyze the reliability of the driver of the towbarless tractor in Harbin International Airport. The task network is established using the method of HTN according to the towing actions. The reliabilities of each operation are calculated with the methods such as HCR and the characteristics of human behaviour (SOR). The simulation model is run for a hundred thousand times on the platform of the discrete event simulation software QUEST, and conclusions are brought out, one of them is the reliability of the driver is 99.666%. The main causes of the human error are the qualification and driving experience of the drivers and the circumstance of the airport.
