The need for improved pilot monitoring and awareness has been widely recognized, and training is a possible intervention. Based on our sensemaking-model of monitoring, we identified key properties of monitoring flight path. We designed scenarios with associated behavioral markers that provide measures of monitoring performance and a short training module emphasizing our proactive, anticipatory view of monitoring. Nineteen first officers from a major US airline participated in the training study. Each pilot flew in a simulator pretest, participated in a training session, and flew in a simulator posttest. We found modest but significant improvements in monitoring. The study collected video, simulator, and eyetracking data and also manipulated whether the Flight Director was on or off. Limitations and future directions are discussed.
