FAA FAA-HF-STD-001B PDF

This standard establishes human factors requirements for the acquisition and development of systems for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

This document presents human factors design standards that are to be applied to new, modified, or updated facilities, systems, and equipment that will be managed, operated, or maintained by the FAA. It covers a broad range of human factors topics.

This document is relevant to all phases of the FAA development process, from the mission-need determination phase through production and deployment phases. It is to be considered for any engineering changes or modifications that affect human interaction with the operational system. This document provides information that can be used in the evaluation and selection of Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) or non-developmental item (NDI) equipment. Similarly, it may be applied to advanced research programs transitioning to new FAA systems.
