{PILOTS NEEDED}
The MITRE Corporation Center for Advanced Aviation System Development
is looking for volunteer pilots to assess flight crew roles and
responsibilities during a notional aircraft spacing concept simulation.
The concept is in the early stages of development and
flight crew input is necessary. The outcome of this study will
be used to mature the concept prior to any field trials. There
is the need for one crewmember on Thursday, August 31, and one
on Friday, Sep. 1.
Participant Requirements: The simulation will require pilot participants
to perform
en-route flight operations in a medium-fidelity flight simulator.
You must be qualified
in turbojet aircraft, be familiar with the Traffic Alert and
Collision Avoidance System
(TCAS), have at least 100 hours of FAR 121 glass cockpit (e.g.
EFIS) experience on
any type aircraft, and must have recent qualification in an aircraft
for which standard
operations permit the routine use of both auto throttle and manual
throttle for speed
control. Pilots of aircraft not equipped with auto throttle systems
are not eligible.
Recently furloughed pilots with appropriate qualifications with
the past 12 months are eligible; however, pilots that participated
in the MITRE CAVS simulations are not.
The simulation will be conducted from through September 1, 2006.
You
will be scheduled for one full day (8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.) with
breaks and lunch
provided, and MITRE will provide $175 compensation for your participation.
There are no known risks or physical discomforts associated with
this simulation
beyond those of ordinary life. For additional information, contact
Shannon Bruther at 703-983-3639 or [email protected].
