Readers will notice that Directline has been redesigned. We are always working
to make our publications more readable. We are grateful to David Faust of
the NASA-Ames Graphics Group for doing a great job of refining Directline’s
layout and providing graphics elements. We hope you like the new format.
Here are the articles contained in the seventh issue of ASRS Directline:
The ASRS Database on CD-ROM
4The ASRS database is now available
for personal computers. See
this notice to find out how you can
get your copy.
How do you spell…?
How do you pronounce…?
by Allen Amsbaugh
5Allen takes a look at the problems
with waypoint identifiers—
ASRS receives many reports about
navigational identifiers that sound
similar to other fixes, or whose pronunciation
seems to defy rational
spelling (or the other way around).
This article also contains some good
sidebar information on how navigational
fixes get their names, and how
ASRS deals with safety problems with
the Alert Bulletin and For Your Information
alerting messages.
And You Wanted to be a
Flight Instructor?
by Marcia Patten & ASRS Analysts
8This article is for instructors and
would-be instructors—regardless
of experience or whether the job is on
a Cessna 150 or a Boeing 747. Marcia,
with the assistance of ASRS’s experienced
cadre of pilot analysts, examines
the pitfalls of the job, with some
great advice on how to deal with the
problems, too. CRM for general aviation
instructors? See page 11 for more
information.
More Than Meets the Eye
by Marcia Patten
15A subject in a recent
CALLBACK issue, we
thought this one was important
enough to provide an expanded review
of the subject in Directline. Laser
light shows are posing some problems
for pilots; check out this article for the
latest information.
Say What?
by Robert Matchette
18Bob has done his usual excellent
research job—this
time examining non-standard phraseology
issues. This article looks at typical
phraseology issues on a flightphase
by flight-phase basis. (There’s a
good sidebar on one of the weirder results
of miscommunication, too.) Circulate
this article among your pilot
staff.
That’s all for the seventh issue of
ASRS Directline. We hope you find
theses articles useful and informative.
