Abstract: The objective of this study was to perform a human factors evaluation of B-1B Alternative Launch Acceptability Region (ALT LAR) and make recommendations to B-1B Systems Program Office Engineering (SPO)(ASC/YDE). The ALT LAR effort was based on the recommendations made on the B-1B Block E LAR in the B-1B Human Factors Baseline Study Report. 1. A human factors study was conducted on the B-1B Alternative Launch Acceptability Region (ALT LAR) displays. The study objective was to perform a human factors evaluation of B-1B ALT LAR displays and make recommendations to B-1B System Program Office Engineering (SPO) (ASC/YDE). 2. This objective was studied in the B-lB engineering Research Simulator (ERS) in a simulated full mission environment using five B-1B crews. After training, the crews flew two missions with Weapons Systems Operators (WSO) changing positions between missions. Workload was meastired, a questionnaire was given, specific mission data were collected, and all missions were video taped.
