Why do FAA systems that work on paper struggle in real-world operations? Often, the gap isn’t technology, it’s human factors.

This 45-minute ATCA webinar examines how user-centered design, procedures, and system integration shape decision-making, workload, and user acceptance in FAA environments. The session highlights why technically “ready” systems can fail operationally, and how cognitive demands, automation, and trust affect safety and performance.

Participants will also explore how Human Readiness Levels (HRLs) complement Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs), and why the FAA is increasingly formalizing human factors as a core acquisition requirement. The takeaway is clear: successful FAA systems are designed for how people actually think, decide, and operate.
