reference pages other than the homepage, you may need to update them. |

There has been a lot of tinkering since the last update.
The most notable change is the addition of the figures which were part of
the paper CRM FOR PART 91 AND 135
OPERATORS which the Captain presented at the NASA/MAC Workshop on
Cockpit Resource Management held in San Francisco, California in 1986. |

It's been a little quiet here on the FLIGHT DECK as I
settle in at my new job with Hughes Training Inc. This update includes a
lot of small changes designed to make the FLIGHT DECK look and work
better. There are a lot more interesting changes on the way, though, so
keep checking back. |

The Captain has a new job!

The FLIGHT DECK continues to grow with the addition of
links to other sites in three areas which I think are very interesting and
important.
The first area is Training and Learning. I
have included links to topics such as low fidelity simulation, virtual
reality, crew resource management, flight deck automation, constructive
learning theory, and distance learning.
The other area, The Future of the Information Age,
explores the many opportunities to grow and improve our society and
planet, and the many challenges which we must meet as we enter the
Information Age. Here you can access information on scenario-based
planning, the emerging information economy, and how they affect our
society.
On the Publications page of the FLIGHT
DECK I have added a link to the Aviation Operations Branch at NASA-Ames
Research Center. This is one of the leading sites for research on Crew
Resource Management (CRM), flight deck automation, and other human
performance issues. Many of the papers published by NASA researchers on
these topics are located at this site. |

Everything on the FLIGHT DECK is new and rather than wait
until I have all the pieces in place, I am starting small. Enjoy your
visit and come back again soon. The FLIGHT DECK will continue to grow.
The initial content of the FLIGHT DECK is a selection of the publications which I have had published over the
years. Please feel free to send comments on them. |
