The system complexity and high workload of the next generation of light scout/attack helicopters is a major cause of concern for the U.S. Army. The Crew Station Research and Development Program has been established by the Array to study the issues of battle captain performance for one-man versus two-man crews. A Crew Station Research and Development Facility (CSRDF) has been contracted for. It consists of a distributed computer system with several stations which play different roles in experiments. Coordination of experiments is done from the Experimenter/Operator Console where a team of Array experimenters and NASA personnel control and monitor the mission scenario, used to test the crew members.
