Linear Energy Transfer (LET) spectra have been measured for lunar missions and for several near Earth orbits ranging from 28 deg to 83 deg inclination. In some of the experiments the flux of Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCR) was determined separately from contributions caused by interactions in the detector material. Results of these experiments are compared to model calculations. The general agreement justifies the use of the model to calculate GCR fluxes. The magnitude of variations caused by solar modulation, geomagnetic shielding, and shielding by matter determined from calculated LET spectra is generally in agreement with experimental data. However, more detailed investigations show that there are some weak points in modeling solar modulation and shielding by material. These points are discussed in more detail.
