In an 1865 poem by William Ross Wallace, he states "The hand that
rocks the cradle is the hand that rules the world." Even as far
back as almost a century and a half ago, he realized the impact
that the nurturers of our nation's children would have on the world
at large. Motherhood remains the most essential and important job
on the planet. We should never underestimate or minimize our roles
as mothers. Because deciding whether or not to stay home with your
young children is such an important, personal decision, it is best
to consider all the options and make an informed decision, one that
gives you peace and one that will not lead to regret.

This thesis presents the results of research into the Boundary
Avoidance Tracking (BAT) theory, which states that often pilots
control an aircraft not in an attempt to maintain some condition,
but to avoid some real or perceived boundaries. This pilot modeling
concept was studied using over 30 pilots in simulator and flight
tests. The pilot-aircraft system was evaluated with 3 different
lateral-directional control models. Pilots were given a roll angle
tracking task in the presence of shrinking boundaries. Pilots were
also given a secondary task in some of the profiles in order to
measure workload. Approximately 42 hours of simulation and 10 test
flights were accomplished. The simulations were conducted in the
Infinity Cube simulator and the Large Amplitude Multi-mode
Aerospace Research Simulator (LAMARS) at the Air Force Research
Laboratory. Flight test sorties were flown on the NF-16D Variable
Stability In-Flight Simulator Test Aircraft (VISTA). The
mathematical BAT model was compared to the flight test data in
order to confirm the theory and validate the model. In addition, a
correlation between pilot performance during these tasks and pilot
opinion of the aircraft was studied.

watch that ends the night Before the rising sun.
