This investigation was conducted to document pilot acceptance of improved displays for the standard light helicopter. Twenty-one helicopter pilots were given a technical briefing on the new displays and filled out a preflight questionnaire concerning their firsthand impressions. Sixteen of the twenty-one pilots received a familiarization flight with the new displays and filled out a postflight questionnaire giving their judgments and opinions. Five of the sixteen pilots were used as data collection pilots. These pilots flew profiles representing typical helicopter instrument maneuvers. Objective and subjective data were obtained through the use of video, audio, and oscillograph recording equipment.
