A simulation test bed has been developed to determine the cockpit information requirements for an aircraft collision avoidance system so that pilots can evaluate alternative methods of displaying collision avoidance information in a realistic but safe environment. The test bed was designed around an existing Boeing 727 cockpit simulator equipped with a computer generated image system that projects a nighttime visual scene on the cockpit windshield. A simulation control computer and peripherals interfaced to the simulator provide a realistic air traffic control environment. The simulation control computer collected flight results and stored these data on tape for subsequent analysis. Flight operation data collected by the computer were correlated with data from questionnaires filled out by participating pilots to determine the cockpit information requirements and used to prepare a final report on the experimental results.
