Automation in Flight Operations Case Study

Prepare a module case study as a PowerPoint presentation regarding automation in flight

operations:

Once again go to the

NTSB Web site

and select one aviation accident report that particularly interests you that also

involves a cockpit automation issue. Review the Factual Information chapter (do not

review the Ana

lysis, Conclusions, or Recommendations chapters) of the Full Report (not

the Summary). Then analyze and evaluate the cockpit automation

–

human interaction

issues that were present in the cockpit prior to the accident. Finally, creatively apply the

concept

s you learned in modules 6 and 7 for improving aviation safety by improving the

liveware and hardware and in this module for mitigating drawbacks to automation and

develop a mitigation plan that might have prevented this accident. As always, support

your w

ork with a reliable source(s).

Rather than writing a two

-

page module case study as you have done previously in this

course, this time create a PowerPoint presentation of your research for this assignment,

just as you would if you were presenting this infor

mation to a group of colleagues. Use

the "Slide Notes" feature of PowerPoint to create the text of your presentation, similar to

the text you have written for those previous module case studies.

There is no specific minimum or maximum number of slides requ

ired for this assignment.

You are expected to use your judgment in determining how many are necessary to

properly and thoroughly cover the subject of your case study. In general, it is better to do

more than less. As with any PowerPoint presentation, each

slide should contain "bullet"

points, not lengthy text. The "Slide Notes" should contain the text of what you would

present.
