Abstract
Although it is the first transportation method to apply the 'Ground Effect' applied to aircraft to ships, WIG ships, which are classified as 'Ships' operating on the water under international law. The pilot aptitude test, which has the effect of preventing safety accidents in advance, has not yet been established as a legal system in S. Korea, after being certified by the Korean Register of Shipping (KR) for the first time in the world in March 2020. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to ensure that identifying the importance, recognition, correlation, etc. of the tools and items of aptitude testing, from a group of experts, can be used appropriately for future development of legal aptitude testing tools. As a method of study, the questionnaire method was used, and the analysis confirmed that the tools used on aircraft and ships could be used appropriately. In particular, Due to the characteristics of the WIG ships, it was confirmed that it is necessary to develop more specifically in the future, the operational qualifications and physical fitness items, which are the aptitude evaluation items.
