| Having experienced problems with their cockpits, the U.S. Air Force conducted research in the 1950s in order to find the average soldier's (or human's) body dimensions. During the research thousands of bodies were measured on ten critical physical dimensions. Arriving at ten //average// body dimensions, one of the researchers found that //not one// of the measured bodies would correspond to the average dimensions of all ten criteria. Designing with //average// dimensions is like a one-size-fits-nobody solution. | Having experienced problems with their cockpits, the U.S. Air Force conducted research in the 1950s in order to find the average soldier's (or human's) body dimensions.
