Collegiate Aviation Review. September 1993.
Barker, Ballard M., Ed.
This document contains two papers on aviation education. "Chief Pilots of Regional Airlines Perceive Basic Instrument Skills as Most Important with Respect to Need for Additional Training of Entry-Level Pilots" (William C. Herrick) reports the results of a study in which 126 (of a population of 197) randomly selected regional airlines' chief pilots who were surveyed regarding the additional training needed by entry-level pilots generally agreed that what new pilots need most is more basic instrument training (flight or simulator). The second paper, "Effectiveness of Computer-Based Flight Simulation" (David A. Lombardo), presents a study in which the transfer effectiveness ratio from a computer-based flight simulation to a generic flight training device was measured by comparing the performance of an experimental group of 29 subjects who used a computer-based flight simulator before using the flight training device to the performance of a control group of 33 individuals who used the flight training device without first having used the computer flight simulator.
