Abstract

Air traffic control (ATC) is a complex part of the air transport system. Training in this activity takes more than one year and requires special qualities and abilities from all participants in this process. Recent studies consider the learning process as one of the determining factors that further influences the efficiency of aviation personnel. The purpose of this review article was to describe the available researches on the ATC training process and related areas, to analyze them, to identify gaps and areas where further research can be conducted. The studies were divided into several areas: studies analyzing ATC training programs (at the FAA Academy and other organizations); research related to simulator training; instructor methods in ATC training; related to ATC instructor competence; interaction between the instructor and the student, etc. In preparing this review, literature sources were used in publications included in Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Cyberleninka and Russian Science Citation Index. Preference was given to sources published in the last 17 years. The work can be useful for researchers of psychological, pedagogical aspects of the work of ATC instructors, students, as well as all those who are interested in finding methods to improve the efficiency of ATC and reduce the impact of the human factor on their work.
