Identifying pilot attributes associated with risk isimportant, especially in general aviation where pilot error is implicated inmost accidents. This research examined the relationship of pilot age, expertise,and cognitive functioning to deviations from an ideal circuit trajectory. Inall, 54 pilots, of varying age, flew a Cessna 172 simulator. Cognitive measureswere obtained using the CogScreen-AE (Kay, 1995). Older age and lower levels of expertise andcognitive functioning were associated with significantly greater flight pathdeviations. The relationship between age and performance was fully mediated by acluster of cognitive factors: speed and working memory, visual attention, andcognitive flexibility. These findings add to the literature showing thatage-related changes in cognition may impact pilot performance.
