\section{Scene}
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item Designing Emergency Checklists is difficult
|
|
\item Procedures in checklists must be tested in simulators~\cite{nasa:design},
|
|
which usually means trained pilots test it, as the tests need
|
|
to work consistently~\cite{manifesto} (making sure it's not lengthy,
|
|
concise and gets critical procedures)
|
|
\item Checklists are usually carried out in high
|
|
workload environments, especially emergency ones
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
\section{Motivation}
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item Testing procedures in checklists are often neglected~\cite{nasa:design}
|
|
\item There are some checklists that may not be fit
|
|
for certain scenarios - e.g. ditching (water landing)
|
|
checklist for US Airways Flight 1549 assumed at least one engine
|
|
was running~\cite{ntsb:AWE1549}, but in this scenario, there were none
|
|
\item Some checklists may make pilots \enquote{stuck}
|
|
- not widely implemented, could be fixed with \enquote{opt out} points.
|
|
e.g. US Airways 1549, plane below 3000ft, could have skip to
|
|
later in the checklist to something like turn on APU, otherwise plane
|
|
will have limited control~\cite{ntsb:AWE1549}.
|
|
\item Checklists may take too long to carry out - Swissair 111
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
\section{Aim}
|
|
The goal of this project is to test checklists in Quick Reference Handbooks (QRH)
|
|
for flaws that could compromise the aircraft and making sure that the tests can
|
|
be completed in a reasonable amount of time by pilots. It is also crucial to make
|
|
sure that the tests are reproducible in the same flight conditions and a variety of
|
|
flight conditions.
|
|
|
|
\section{Objectives}
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item Research current checklists that may be problematic and are testable
|
|
in the QRH tester being made
|
|
\item Implement a formal model that runs through checklists, with the
|
|
research gathered to produce an accurate test
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item Understand the relative states of the aircraft that need to be captured
|
|
\item Ensure that the results of the checklist procedures are consistent
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
\item Implement a QRH tester manager that
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item Runs the formal model and reacts to the output of the formal model
|
|
\item Connect to a flight simulator to run actions from the formal model
|
|
\item Implement checklist procedures to be tested, run them, and get
|
|
feedback on how well the procedure ran
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
\end{enumerate}
