AVIATION HUMAN FACTOR LECTURE 1: INTRODUCTION TO HUMAN FACTOR PREPARED BY: MOHD ‘ARIFF BIN ABDUL JALIL B. ENG. (AEROSPACE)(HONS) - IIUM AVIATION MANAGEMENT COLLEGE

Course Synopsis AVIATION HUMAN FACTOR : AHF 2203 This module provide the knowledge or how people, crew and passengers are affected when flying in high altitude. The ability to know the behaviors of human beings in aircrafts. Understand the needs of passengers in an aircrafts. 4/27/2017

Course Objectives – In general AVIATION HUMAN FACTOR : AHF 2203 Provide knowledge to students the general factors in affecting humans body system in atmosphere for understanding and prevention purposes. Students should be able to appreciate the causes of certain aviation sickness and their precautionary needed to overcome them. Having awareness on aviation sickness especially to: Recognize the symptoms. Action needed to overcome the problem. 4/27/2017

Learning Outcomes AVIATION HUMAN FACTOR : AHF 2203 Appreciate and understanding the relevancies of studying human factors in aviation. Understand the relation between liveware to other elements (software, hardware, and environment). {SHEL Concept} Acquire some basic understanding of Human Physiology.

Definition of Human Factor AVIATION HUMAN FACTOR : AHF 2203 According to Federal Aviation Administration, FAA: Human Factors is defined as a multidisciplinary effort to generate and compile information about human capabilities and limitations and apply that information to equipment, systems, facilities, procedures, jobs, environments, training, staffing and personnel management for safe, comfortable, effective human performance (FAA Order 9550.8 Human Factors Policy).

According to International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) : AVIATION HUMAN FACTOR : AHF 2203 "Human Factors is about people : it is about people in their working and living environments, and it is about their relationship with equipment, procedures, and the environment. Just as importantly, it is about their relationships with other people.... It’s two objectives can be seen as safety and efficiency.” -(ICAO Circular 227)

Objectives of AHF AVIATION HUMAN FACTOR : AHF 2203 Identify the technical efforts necessary to address the most operationally significant human issues (e.g.: flying syndromes) in aviation and acquire necessary resources to respond to these issues. Understand the human part and to recognize when the body and/or mind is not in tune with the aircraft. Maintain and develop high level of awareness of physiology of flight.

Accidents & Incidents AVIATION HUMAN FACTOR : AHF 2203 What is the differences between accident and incident?? Incident: event Accident: event that caused unintentionally. What is differenced between accidents and incidents?

SHEL Model Most of aircraft accident were because of human error. AVIATION HUMAN FACTOR : AHF 2203 Most of aircraft accident were because of human error. Aircraft mechanical failures greatly decrease and rarely happen due to high and modern technology used in aviation. The SHELL Model is defined as “the relationship of human factors and the aviation environment” (Reinhart, 1996, p. 6 10). In the model the match mismatch of the block(interface) is just as important as characteristics of the blocks themselves. A mismatch can be a source of human error. Liveware becomes a component as well as the central figure upon which each component will have an effect; thus, we can talk about the “human-machine” interaction (pilot moves a control), for example, while keeping in mind that there are other interactions (turbulence caused by weather).

SHELL Model AVIATION HUMAN FACTOR : AHF 2203 Figure shown illustrates how the interface of flightcrew, machine, systems, equipment and software come together in airspace environment.

SHELL Concept AVIATION HUMAN FACTOR : AHF 2203 However, many factors that cause people to become confused and make mistakes when handling aviation jobs such as: Information transfer problem Language difficulties when flying internationally Mis-read checklist Mis-interpret intrument indications Weather condition Fatigue Psychological problem

Why must study Human Factor? AVIATION HUMAN FACTOR : AHF 2203 More than 70% Aviation accidents and incidents can be related to Human Factors causes. Other factors: weather , equipment, maintenance, airport/ATC , other What is differenced between accidents and incidents?
