An Evolutionary Approach to the Design of Flight Decks for Future Civil Transport Aircraft
Abstract
This paper discusses a programme of work being carried out jointly by the British Aircraft Corporation and Hawker Siddeley Aviation, into the design of flight decks for future civil transport aircraft. The programme is aimed at exploring all aspects of flight deck design, in sufficient depth to enable decisions to be made as to whether or not significant changes could, or should be introduced into aircraft scheduled to enter service in the 1980s. Some of the information now presented has been published previously by my colleagues engaged on the programme. I make no apology for this, since any story worth telling is also worth repeating — and perhaps embellishing in the process.
