Description

---

From the dangers a pilot faces when straying too high in an oxygen-deprived atmosphere to the way the brain attempts to process the enormous amount of information obtained during a flight. This book is for pilots and non-pilots to explore the vast number of factors that can influence a pilot's ability to fly an aircraft safely.

This book follows closely the syllabi of Human Factors from a range of aviation authorities around the world, allowing the reader to obtain the required knowledge in Human Factors. This book goes beyond these syllabi, with a particular focus on practical human factors, linking science with the real world. Each chapter contains a range of visual figures and mini case studies that will allow the reader to have a deeper understanding of what it takes for a pilot to operate at the best of their ability.
