Abstract
Within the HILAS flight deck strand a flight simulator experiment was performed. It was the first experiment of a series of two. The aim of the experiment was to evaluate a set of Human Factors tools (toolbox) for measurement of HCI aspects when new technologies are installed on a flight deck. This paper is an informative document that describes the tools and technologies that were applied in that first experiment. The lessons that will be identified from this experiment will be the input for a better and improved Human Factors toolbox which will be evaluated in the second experiment. Eventually this toolbox may be used by authorities and industry as a structured way of measuring HCI aspects of new technologies and applications that may be installed in future flight decks and as such may also be used as a HF certification instrument.
