abstract="Three methods of presenting aircraft engine information were evaluated in a flight simulation: 1) conventional electro-mechanical instruments, 2) monochrome cathode-ray-tube (CRT) format and 3) color CRT format. Results indicated that pilots identified failed engine parameters faster and more accurately when engine information is integrated onto a single cockpit display compared to when it is presented on an array of dedicated instruments. However, there were no significant performance differences between the monochrome and color CRT formats. These results, besides showing the advantages of presenting engine parameters on a single computer-driven display, indicated a means of potential cost savings since monochrome formats are less expensive to implement.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
