Aerospace transparency research compendium

For nearly 30 years, the Crew System Interface Division (HEC; www.hec.afrl. af.mil) of the Air Force Research Laboratory (ARRL), located at Wright-Patterson AFB OH, has advanced aerospace transparency technology through the investigative research of numerous optical and visual parameters inherent in aerospace transparencies. This document contains reprints of four publications by AFRL/ HEC, which provide an overview of various optical characteristics, visual effects and other issues associated with aircraft transparencies. Also included is an annotated bibliography of in-house publications, a bibliography of additional transparency-related publications plus listings of standardized test methods and related patent abstracts.
