Abstract The goal of the Wake Turbulence Training Aid is to reduce the number of wake-turbulence related accidents and incidents by improving the pilot's and air traffic controller's decision making and situational awareness through increased and shared understanding and heightened awareness of the factors involved in wake turbulence. The major three objectives of the Wake Turbulence Training Aid are: (1) to educate pilots and air traffic controllers on wake turbulence and avoidance of the phenomenon; (2) to increase the wake-turbulence situational awareness of pilots and air traffic controllers; and (3) to provide usable information to develop a ground training program.
