Abstract
The Defence & Civil Institute of Environmental Medicine (DCIEM) is currently undertaking an aircrew/cockpit compatibility evaluation, the purpose of which is to review Canadian Forces (CF) aircrew selection standards so as to ensure they provide for adequate physical compatibility between aircrew and crew stations. One particular phase of this tasking requires the development of a process for evaluating aircrew/cockpit compatibility within the CF. In this report, the currently proposed process is critiqued. Discussion is limited to the issues of vision, reach and clearance. Other background information that pertains to this process (e.g., anthropometrics) is described briefly in the Appendices.
