Description
Summary:A conceptual plan designed to aid the Landing Signal Officer (LSO) in training pilot carrier landing skills is described. The plan, named the Automated Performance Assessment and Remedial Training System (APARTS) employs basic principles of learning in integrating the Night Carrier Landing Trainer (NCLT) with Field Carrier Landing Practice (FCLP). Application of the APARTS conceptual plan resulted in the development of two computer programs, PADDLES and GRADER, which are described and documented. The two computer programs process, store and summarize LSO grades and comments of a pilot's landing performance during FCLP. Individualized training is accomplished through diagnostic training feedback provided by program printouts. NCLT remedial instruction is specified to correct a pilot's landing technique problems identified during FCLP. Future development and integration of APARTS for improved carrier landing training effectiveness is outlined. (Author)
