Description Shipping Returns

Human error is cited as a major cause in over 70% of accidents, and it is widely agreed that a better understanding of human capabilities and limitations -- both physical and psychological -- would help reduce human error and improve flight safety. This book was first published when the UK Civil Aviation Authority introduced an examination in human performance and limitations for all private and professional pilot licences. Now the Joint Aviation Authorities of Europe have published a new syllabus as part of their Joint Aviation Requirements for Flight Crew Licensing.

The book has been completely revised and rewritten to take account of the new syllabus. The coverage of basic aviation psychology has been greatly expanded, and the section on aviation physiology now includes topics on the high altitude environment and on health maintenance. Throughout, the text avoids excessive jargon and technical language. "There is no doubt that this book provides an excellent basic understanding of the human body, its limitations, the psychological processes and how they interact with the aviation environment.

I am currently studying for my ATPL Ground Exams and I found this book to be an invaluable aid. It is equally useful for those studying for the PPL and for all pilots who would like to be reminded of their physiological and psychological limitations." --General Aviation, June 2002 Format Paperback | 208 pages Dimensions 161 x 233 x 12mm | 338g Publication date 19 Apr 2002 Publisher John Wiley and Sons Ltd Imprint Blackwell Science Ltd Publication City/Country Oxford, United Kingdom Language English Edition Statement 3rd Edition ISBN10 0632059656 ISBN13 9780632059652
