Pilot Decision-Making Under Pressure: How to Train for the Unexpected
Decision-making under pressure is one of the most critical pilot competencies. Traditional frameworks such as DODAR and FORDEC provide useful structure, but they cannot reveal the hidden cognitive and crew processes that drive real-world decisions in high-stress environments. TACET bridges this gap by combining simulator data with eye-tracking, making decision-making measurable, visible, and coachable. This […]
Workload Management for Pilots: Staying in Control Under Pressure
Pilot workload management regulates the cognitive capacity that underpins all other competencies. Without it, situational awareness, communication, and decision-making can rapidly degrade under pressure. TACET makes workload visible, enabling crews to anticipate peaks, distribute tasks effectively, and maintain control even in the busiest moments. In high-pressure aviation environments, managing workload is not just about efficiency, […]

Leadership in the Cockpit: Why Teamwork is Central to Flight Safety
In a high-pressure aviation environment, leadership and teamwork are not optional extras – they are critical to flight safety. This blog explores how leadership in the cockpit has evolved from a top-down model to a shared, dynamic competency across the crew. It also highlights how TACET, currently deployed on Virtual and Mixed Reality platforms, enhances […]

The DPS offers NHS buyers a compliant, […]
Situational Awareness in Aviation: How Pilots Process Information Under Pressure
Summary Situational awareness is a vital yet hard-to-measure competency in aviation. Traditional training methods often rely on subjective judgement, but tools like TACET offer objective insights by tracking where pilots direct their attention during high-pressure scenarios. This data-driven approach supports evidence-based debriefs, strengthens CBTA alignment, and helps instructors identify performance trends and address skill gaps. […]
Pilot Communication Skills: Avoiding Misunderstandings in Critical Moments
Summary Effective communication is a core pilot competency that directly impacts flight safety. In high-pressure environments, misheard instructions or unclear exchanges can lead to serious incidents. Barriers like language differences, cognitive overload, and cultural factors make consistent communication challenging, even for experienced crews. TACET enhances pilot communication training by revealing hidden behaviours like where attention […]
