Dear Sir or Madam,
For my research about ''automation surprise in the cockpit''. I am looking for candidates who want to fill in a questionnaire related to this subject.
This questionnaire is aimed at pilots with experience in commercial aviation. If this is applicable to you, we would like to ask you to answer this questionnaire.
The questionnaire consists of 20 questions and will take approximately 10 minutes to complete. The research subject is 'automation surprise' for the research program 'Aviation' at the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences.
Automation surprise is a phenomenon in which pilots are subject to surprise or confusion regarding the automation in on-board aircraft systems; for example the FMS or autopilot. Often, in these situations pilots exclaim: "What is it doing now?", "How did it get into this mode?" or "How do I stop this machine from doing this?".
The confusion and surprises related to automation can have many different causes.
With the help of this questionnaire, we expect to gain knowledge on the frequency of occurrence and possible causes of automation surprise in aviation.
Your personal details and answers will remain confidential and will only be used for this particular research. We would be glad to hear your experience concerning this phenomenon.
We hope we can count on your cooperation in answering this questionnaire.
