The late Captain Frank H Hawkins FRAes, M Phil, was Human Factors
Consultant to KLM, for whom he had flown for over 30 years as line
captain and R & D pilot, designing the flight decks for all KLM
aircraft from the Viscount to the Boeing 747. In this period he
developed and applied his specialization in Human Factors. His
perception of lack of knowledge of Human Factors and its disastrous
consequences led him to initiate both an annual course on Human
Factors in Transport Aircraft Operation at Loughborough and Aston
Universities, and the KLM Human Factors Awareness Course (KHUFAC).
A consultant member of SAE S-7 committee, he was also a member of
the Human Factors Society and a Liveryman of the Guild of Air
Pilots. He was keynote speaker at the ICAO Human Factors Seminar
held in St Petersburg, Russia in April 1990. About the Editor The
late Captain Harry W Orlady was an Aviation Human Factors
Consultant and a former Senior Research Scientist for the Aviation
Safety Reporting System (ASRS); he also worked with NASA/Ames, with
private research firms and the FAA in its certification of the
Boeing 747-400 and the McDonnell-Douglas MK-11. As a pilot with
United Airlines he flew 10 types of aircraft ranging from the DC-3
to the Boeing 747. He conducted studies in ground and flight
training, Human Factors, aviation safety and aeromedical fields,
and received several major awards and presented nearly 100 papers
or lectures. He was an elected fellow of the Aerospace Medical
Association; a member of the Human Factors Society, of ICE Flight
Safety and Human Factors Study Group, and the SAE Human Behavioural
Technology and G-10 Committees.

With the pace of ongoing technological and teamwork evolution
across air transport, there has never been a greater need to master
the application and effective implementation of leading edge human
factors knowledge. Human Factors in Multi-Crew Flight Operations
does just that. Written from the perspective of the well-informed
pilot it provides a vivid, practical context for the appreciation
of Human Factors, pitched at a level for those studying or engaged
in current air transport operations. Features Include: - A unique
seamless text, intensively reviewed by subject specialists. -
Contemporary regulatory requirements from ICAO and references to
FAA and JAA. - Comprehensive detail on the evolutionary development
of air transport Human Factors. - Key statistics and analysis on
the size and scope of the industry. - In-depth demonstration of the
essential contribution of human factors in solving current aviation
problems, air transport safety and certification. - Future
developments in human factors as a 'core technology'. - Extensive
appendices, glossary and indexes for ease of reference. The only
book available to map the evolution, growth and future expansion of
human factors in aviation, it will be the text for pilots and
flight attendants and an essential resource for engineers,
scientists, managers, air traffic controllers, regulators,
educators, researchers and serious students.
