The author first considers air traffic control systems and human factors in relation to them; man as a system component and the relevance of various human attributes are then discussed. Man's functions in air traffic control are described, together with desirable characteristics of his physical working environment. Having considered what controllers do, their facilities and their working environment it is possible to suggest how they should be selected and trained, what might be desirable attributes in controllers and what they need to know. The relevance of various aspects of their conditions of employment is examined, together with characteristics of the controller as an individual. Questions of measuring controllers and of conducting human factors research on air traffic control problems are then discussed. The human factors aspect of other functions within air traffic control systems are briefly examined and the text concludes with suggestions for progress in applying human factors to air traffic control.
