COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF CONVENTIONAL ELECTRONIC AND OZ CONCEPT DISPLAYS FOR AIRCRAFT ENERGY MANAGEMENT By Erik Reese Baker A Dissertation Submitted to the College of Aviation in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Aviation Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Daytona Beach, Florida August 2017 © 2017 Erik Reese Baker All Rights Reserved. ii ABSTRACT Researcher: Erik Reese Baker Title: COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF CONVENTIONAL ELECTRONIC AND OZ CONCEPT DISPLAYS FOR AIRCRAFT ENERGY MANAGEMENT Institution: Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Degree: Doctor of Philosophy in Aviation Year: 2017 A repeated-measures, within-subjects design was conducted on 58 participant pilots to assess mean differences on energy management situation awareness response time and response accuracy between a conventional electronic aircraft display, a primary flight display (PFD), and an ecological interface design aircraft display, the OZ concept display. Participants were associated with a small Midwestern aviation university, including student pilots, flight instructors, and faculty with piloting experience.
