... atmosphere, weather, climate, equipment and technical systems, etc.), we speak about nonverbal communication. Regardless of the communication type, it should be treated as a process in which ten characteristic elements can be distinguished (Fig.1.). No matter in which task environment we may be, those elements can be divided into two basic groups: ...

Runway incursions, events in which an aircraft, vehicle, or person is located on a runway surface without authorization, continue to be a constant threat to aviation safety. Previously identified on the ''Most Wanted'' list of aviation safety issues by the National Transportation Safety Board, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has spent sig...
Radio navigation systems (RNSs) are commonly applied in air, land and marine navigation. They are most often used for position determination. However, when comparing the definitions of this concept provided by global organisations, such as the International Association of Marine Aids to Navigation and Lighthouse Authorities (IALA), International Ci...
People and companies today are connected around the world, which has led to a growing importance of the aviation industry. As flight delays are a big challenge in aviation, machine learning algorithms can be used to forecast those. This paper investigates the prediction of the occurrence of flight arrival delays with three prominent machine learnin...

... Communication is a form of exchanging information, thoughts and feelings. It can be job related, inter-team coordination, or used by mission control to manage the performance of crew members [4]. Communication can be an important factor in isolation missions, stabilizing the well-being as a carrier of relations with friends, family or a wider group of associates [22]. ...
Alpha-XR Mission conducted by XR Lab PJAIT focused on research related to individual and crew well-being and participatory team collaboration in ICE (isolated, confined and extreme) conditions. In this two-week mission within an analog space habitat, collaboration, objective execution and leisure was facilitated and studied by virtual reality (VR) tools. The mission commander and first officer, both experienced with virtual reality, took part in daily briefings with mission control. In the first week the briefings were voice-only conducted via a channel on Discord. During the following week last briefings were conducted in VR, using Horizon Workrooms. This qualitative pilot study employing participatory observation revealed that VR facilitates communication, especially on complex problems and experiences, providing the sense of emotional connection and shared understanding, that may be lacking in audio calls. The study points to the need to further explore VR-facilitated communication in high-stake environments as it may improve relationships, well-being, and communication outcomes.
Written communication, unlike verbal communication, has one part of the communication loop missing; the receiver does not have the privilege of clarifying his doubts face to face with the sender. This may result in the sender and receiver taking out a different meaning from a common communication. Such a situation could emerge among a diversified workforce. The objectives of this paper are to highlight key constraints in written communication which can affect aviation safety, written communication processes employed in the aviation industry and simultaneously explore the training potential in order to standardize the written communication processes. The methods applied to this research were qualitative in nature. Results of this study reflect a preference towards reading a digital document rather than a hard copy of the same. Local/native languages have an effect on the English language. Owing to the differences in educational level, cultural background, the experience and exposure of the professionals, a document could be read and understood differently by different individuals. The style of the documents, such as clarity, simplicity, tone and brevity, can affect the reader’s ability to understand the information. Document layout, fonts, colour coding, are critical issues in timely and effective comprehension of information. Handwritten notes followed by schematic diagrams emerged as the most difficult documents to read and understand. The findings led to the following notable recommendations: frequent training of aviation staff under the guidance of some international body following a global and uniformed standard; development of standardized terminologies for recurring tasks and responsibilities; periodic assessment of written records carried out by different staff members.
