Appropriateness of Readability of a Federal Aviation Agency Regulation, a Flight Crew Manual, and a Company-Pilot Labor Agreement for an Airline's Pilots

Abstract

Appropriate readability of a Federal Aviation Agency regulation, an airline flight crew manual, and a company-pilot labor agreement for an airline's pilots was examined. Analyses of FOG readability indices did not confirm appropriateness of regulation or agreement for pilots ( too difficult); however, analyses did confirm appropriateness of crew manual for pilots (essentially equal level).
