Overview

Fundamentals of Aircrew Performance This book takes the latest developments in psychology (learning, stress management, coaching, personality, etc.), neuroscience (cognition, memory, data-processing, etc.), and linguistics (cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), neuro-linguistic programing (NLP), etc.) and shows how they can be applied in a practical way to improve the performance of aircrew. It complements the skills training and aviation medicine training currently undertaken by aircrew to allow them to perform at their best in the high-stress, data-rich environments of modern aircraft. 'Airmanship' is a much-overused word in the aviation world: Part 1 of this book will allow the reader to have a much clearer idea of what it is, together with concrete and practical ways to improve 'cognitive airmanship'. Each chapter includes sections to aid in the assessment and instruction of these skills. Part 2 of the book covers Aircrew Performance Coaching, detailing how executive coaching techniques can be combined with sports psychology to provide a unique and proven system applicable to aircrew.
