Reviews

'As experts in flight display evaluation, Newman and Greeley have put word Test back in cockpit displays. Newman and Greeley not only understand the cockpit display technology, the test methodology, but also the impact of the technology on the pilot operator. Cockpit Displays: Test and Evaluation contains the necessary knowledge for display test and evaluation and should be considered an essential reference for conducting cockpit display test.' Loran Haworth, Former Chair, DOD Flight Symbology Working Group, Experimental Test Pilot and Engineering Research Psychologist, US Army (retired) California (The opinion here expressed is that of Loran Haworth and not necessarily that of the U.S. Army, Department of Defense, The Federal Aviation Administration or the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.) '...this book will be an invaluable reference/guide to those involved in all aspects of cockpit display design, test and evaluation now and into the foreseeable future.' The Aerospace Professional '...this is a good book, structured sensibly in small tidy chapters, but with masses of detail ... It should be useful and interesting reading for the display test engineer, the flight test engineeer or the flight test manager.' Ergonomics Abstracts 'The authors...have been very thorough in their research and step-by-step walkthrough of the design process...Newman and Greeley present a clear and well-supported argument for a comprehensive design philosophy...I hope that those working in the industry pay this book the attention it deserves.' Aerlines Magazine
