The questions connected with automation of testing of professional skills for aviation personnel on aircraft on-board facilities taking into account psychophysiological peculiarities of all tested persons are considered. The aim of the study is to find additional means of tightening the quality control of professional training for aviation personnel, taking into account the psychophysiological aspect of this control. To achieve the above-mentioned goal, the issues of tightening control for aviation personnel competence level during their training on computer simulators in conditions as close as possible to the real operating conditions of aviation equipment were solved. The research material is the obtained and processed information about the number of recorded changes in operating conditions of aviation equipment, the maximum speed for aviation personnel reaction to changes in its operating conditions, the median speed for aviation personnel reaction to changes in these conditions, the minimum speed of its reaction to changes in the same conditions, the number of decisions made by aviation personnel, the number of correctly made decisions, the number of incorrectly made decisions, and the maximum speed of decision-making by aviation personnel. In the process of research, the procedures of directed enumeration and comparative analysis for aviation personnel training results on computer simulators. When conducting the research, methods of software and hardware-software modeling for aviation personnel operation procedures on aircraft on-board facilities were used. The use of the so-called FLIGHTESTS as a set of individual tasks with control questions and electronic forms for the report on the performance of these tasks and answers to control questions is proposed. These FLIGHTESTS can and should be considered the basis for unerroric to assess the professional competence for aviation personnel. This unerroric will provide additional opportunities to tighten the quality control of professional training for aviation personnel.
