“…However, Neubauer et al [40] showed that gender differences were absent in 3D tasks, and these diminished after training 2D visuospatial mental rotation tasks. These findings were confirmed by Koglbauer and Braunstingl [12], who evaluated a flight simulator training program and did not find gender differences in terms of situational awareness and the performance of flight tasks that involved processing both visuospatial and verbal information. Women who took part in simulator training perceived a lower workload than men when the workload was associated with the need to coordinate with other aircraft in the traffic circuit [12].…”

Women who took part in simulator training perceived a lower workload than men when the workload was associated with the need to coordinate with other aircraft in the traffic circuit [12]. The intensity of the positive emotions experienced by the trainees of both genders was high, indicating that practical training was more enjoyable and effective than classroom instruction when teaching visual airport procedures [12].…”

“…Currently, a wide range of training simulators is used, including part-task desktop devices, flight procedure training devices, and high-fidelity motion-based full flight simulators [10]. More recently, networks of simulators have been used in research on pilot training in both military [11] and civil aviation [12]. In addition, serious games, such as the computer game The Space Fortress, have been successfully used to train pilots' allocation of attention in conditions of multitasking, skills that pilots could transfer to real flight situations [13].…”

Potential Augmented Reality Application Areas for Pilot Education: An Exploratory Study

The goal of carrying out this work was to identify potential application areas for augmented reality (AR) in pilot education by addressing gender preferences. Like the field of engineering, the aviation industry is dominated by men. Because the aviation industry forecasts a high demand for pilots, it is highly desirable to address gender diversity and improve teaching methods in pilot education. In this study, potential application areas for AR-supported pilot training were investigated by conducting a survey with 60 pilots and flight instructors (including 12 women). Typical AR use cases were presented in videos, and the pilots reported their preferences regarding similar or other AR applications used in different parts of the flight training program. AR navigation was the use case that was most frequently preferred by both female and male pilots. The majority of pilots agreed that AR could potentially be used in theoretical instruction, pre-flight aircraft inspection, and procedure training. In addition, both gender groups showed similar preferences for various gaming concepts that make learning more interesting and engaging, such as receiving positive feedback. However, a higher percentage of women than men reported that achieving a target or receiving points to successfully finish a task and answering questions during the game were satisfying. Including a story in the game to attract attention was preferred by a higher percentage of men than women. The results of this study can be used to design AR educational concepts that support gender diversity in pilot education and other technical domains.

“…Bauer et al [8] found that despite initial gender differences in the pre-test phase, both women and men significantly improved their performance of upset recovery and reached similar levels of performance during post-test, after the same number of simulator exercises. In addition, Koglbauer and Braunstingl [9] investigated the effects of training traffic separation and airport procedures in a naturalistic flight simulation environment. They did not find gender differences in performance but in the subjective workload related to specific flight tasks that involved processing of both visuospatial and verbal information [9].…”

For flying all types of turbine-engine airplanes, a pilot must undergo an intense type rating (TR) course. This study investigated the learning conditions and TR course content, and specifies the most difficult course elements that could be tackled by augmented reality (AR) applications. Because women are underrepresented in the worldwide pilot population, it is important to address gender-specific preferences and needs in the development of AR-based wearable technologies for advanced pilot training. A gender-sensitive survey of the learning conditions and course contents was conducted with 31 pilots and 22 instructors. Despite many similarities, the results confirm that there are gender-specific needs and preferences for the development of future AR-based applications for TR training. In addition, the views of both pilots’ and instructors’ are required to obtain a comprehensive assessment of the learning contents and conditions related to TR. The results also show that time pressure increased the perceived difficulty of the course for some trainees. These results are important because they indicate the directions to be taken in developing future AR-based training applications for a more learner-centered and inclusive TR training. Future directions to foster a socially sustainable development of AR-based training means for TR with special focus on gender diversity are presented.
