title: [Visual ergonomy and flying safety. The importance of recognizing the instruments].
abstract: While flying, more than 90% of all relevant information reaches the pilots visually, the so-called primary flight display providing the most important information. The size, brightness, contrast, and color perception of these instruments are important for precise recognition. We discuss the results from a study of new flying instruments.
