This report outlines the development of the General Aviation Inspection Training System (GAITS), a computer-based inspection training system for the General Aviation industry. Extending earlier work on such systems for commercial aviation, this tool is specifically designed for training aircraft maintenance technicians in inspection skills using a multi-media presentational approach with interaction opportunities between the user and the computer. It is anticipated that its use will systematize and standardize the inspection training process in the General Aviation industry. Specifically, this research, pursued over three years, achieved the following objectives: (1) task analyses of existing inspection operations at geographically dispersed GA locations, (2) the development and organization of content to support inspection training, (3) a prototype training system and (4) the dissemination of the findings of the research to the GA and aviation research communities. |
