  • 1.  Pilot reaction times

    Posted 10-23-2023 13:04

    I'm wondering if anyone can point me to studies regarding pilot reaction times and as they relate to emergency or non-normal events. I'm really looking for time values specifically.  Thanks in advance.

    Google Scholar returns several responses for "pilot reaction times":https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0,6&qsp=2&q=aircraft+pilot+reaction+time&qst=ib

    Hi J. 
    My first stop would be Boff and Lincoln's "Engineering data compendium." It is dated, but will get you started. I believe it is now available free online from NASA.
