Since the very earliest years of aviation, it was clear that
human factors were critical to the success and safety of the
system. As aviation has matured, the system has become extremely

covers the design of aircrafts for the comfort and well being of
the passenger.
The book discusses strategies and guidelines for maximizing
comfort, the design of aircrafts including cockpit design, and
the training and work schedules for flight attendants and pilots.
It is becoming increasingly important to view problems not as
isolated issues that can be extracted from the system
environment, but as embedded issues that can only be understood
as a part of an overall system. In keeping with a system that is
vast in its scope and reach, the chapters in this book cover a
wide range of topics, including:

As air traffic modernization efforts begin to vastly increase the
capacity of the system, the issues facing engineers, scientists,
and other practitioners of human factors are becoming more
challenging and more critical. Reflecting road themes and trends
in this field, the book documents the latest research in this
area.
