European Collaboration on Transition Training for Improved Safety

Objective

The increase of automated tasks in the airline cockpit has changed the role of the crew from an active one, to an apparently more passive one, supervising and manageing automated systems. Many believe that this fundamental change in role has not received enough attention and that it may have led to crews not being adequately trained to perform their new supervisory and management tasks resulting in a number of human factors accidents and incidents. The objectives of ECOTTRIS are to produce an accident and incident analysis in relation to transition training factors from which operational and/or training factors can be derived which lead to possible safety risks. Produce a skill and training analysis based upon which training requirements and recommendations can be derived for transition training. To make recommendations for cockpit changes based on human factors standards where more effective procedures and/or training is not expected to adequately control the problem.
