The modifications consisted of a lecture concentrating on the fundamentals of attitude instrument flight. One group of 100 students received the new training while a control group of 100 students did not. Analysis of the flight grades of the two groups revealed no significant difference in their performance. Based on the results of this research it was concluded that the modified basic instrument training did not improve the performance of student naval aviators. However, the modified lecture and training did improve the student's understanding of basic instrument fundamentals. The study recommended that the modified lecture should be continued as part of the syllabus because the benefits from affording the student aviators with additional training exceed the small costs involved. 收起
