Stress on the organism of pilots maneuvering fixed-wing or rotary-wing aircraft in crop-dusting and sowing operations, with abrupt changes in terrain and sharp turns required, is studied on the basis of telemetered heart rate, tremorgrams, indications of muscle fatigue (particularly, flexor muscles of the fingers), and response to vibrations. Comparisons are made of data for low-level flight over even terrain and nap-of-the-earth flight over hilly terrain. Responses in fixed-wing flight and helicopter flight are also contrasted. Criteria are proposed for optimization of piloting conditions in this type of service. Restrictions on interpretation of the data are stated, and data are presented in tabular and graphic form.
