The study of pilot performance and limitations is now one of the major areas a pilot must master to fly an aircraft safely. A single factor seldom causes an aircraft accident, but rather an accumulation of minor factors, such as time pressure, high workload and distractions. In this environment, a pilot's thinking becomes strained, and errors begin to occur. The first error often leads to more errors, each resulting in reduced safety margins, which if left unchecked, can lead to disaster.
From the author of the popular Aviation Books Series, this book takes the reader deep into the world of pilot performance and limitations, with a particular focus on practical aviation, thereby linking science with the real world. Whether you are a new pilot who is exploring the topic in greater detail or a professional pilot who has been flying for countless years, it is essential to have a comprehensive understanding of the range of factors that can affect your ability to fly an aircraft safely.
