Abstract Objective To facilitate evaluation on Cosmic radiation dose received by flight crew by developing a convenient and effective measuring method.Methods In comparison with several commonly used evaluating methods,this research employs CARI-6 software issued by FAA(Federal Aviation Administration) to measure Cosmic radiation dose for flight crew members exposed to.Results Compared with other methods,CARI-6 is capable of providing reliable calculating results on radiation dose and applicable to all flight crew of different airlines.Conclusion Cosmic radiation received by flight crew is on the list of occupational radiation.For a smooth running of Standards for controlling exposure to cosmic radiation of air crew,CARI software may be a widely applied tool in radiation dose estimation of for flight crew.
