While many welcome the operational efficiency that AI can offer in aviation, a more profound question is emerging: What happens when systems become smarter, but the humans within those systems are left behind?

Special Report: Why the aviation industry can’t agree on how to certify AI
Machine learning is challenging traditional methods for assuring aircraft safety — and the industry is divided over how to move forward.

Why do we need CCRI™?

Because aviation measures almost everything — fuel flow, fatigue, flight time — except resilience.
The Crew Cognitive Resilience Index (CCRI™) introduces a measurable way to assess how crews sustain cognition and decision accuracy when automation is degraded or uncertain.

#Automation and #AI are changing how we fly, but also how we think.

#CCRI™ explores how pilots adapt when control shifts, when trust is tested, and when intelligent systems behave in unexpected ways.

Because safety isn’t a property of the machine, it’s an emergent property of the system.

How do we ensure that aviation crews remain not only competent but also cognitively resilient in environments increasingly shaped by automation and artificial intelligence?

The Crew Cognitive Resilience Index (CCRI™) gives us a measurable way to see how crews think, adapt, and recover under pressure.
When you know a comparative index, you know where to focus your energy — and how to make training more purposeful, efficient, and resilient.

Automation doesn’t erase human error — it reshapes it.

CCRI™ explores that shifting boundary between human judgment and system logic.

Automation isn’t the problem.
It’s our relationship to it.

CCRI™ is exploring what happens when trust is misplaced, decisions are delayed, and minds freeze under pressure.

What if we could train for cognitive agility?

We’ve measured fuel efficiency, delays, CRM errors, fatigue…
But what if the next big metric in aviation is resilience?

Not just physical, but cognitive.
Not just recovery, but adaptation.

That’s what CCRI™ is here to explore.

✈️ Pilots don’t fail because of a lack of training.
They fail when the system assumes they’re not human.

Meet the Crew Cognitive Resilience Index (CCRI™) — a framework for measuring how flight crews adapt, recover, and think under pressure.

Trusting automation isn’t the problem.
Calibrating that trust is.
That’s why trust calibration is a core pillar of CCRI™, our evolving framework for measuring real-world pilot resilience.

When the abnormal becomes normal, how do crews cope?

🧠 CCRI™ is asking tough questions about attention, adaptation, and decision load in highly automated flight decks.
We’re not trying to replace pilots.
We’re learning how they recover.

We have performance checklists for aircraft.
What if we had resilience checklists for crews?
Enter Crew Cognitive Resilience Index (CCRI™) — a new systems-informed lens on flight safety.

“The cockpit is quiet. The automation is stable. The storm is cognitive.”

What does it mean for a flight crew to be resilient — not just trained, but prepared to adapt in real time?

That’s what the CCRI™ is here to explore.
