The changes in the pilot tasks required by increasing flight control automation are discussed. Reasons for, and examples of, automation as well as resulting problems are presented. The concept of task sharing between pilot and flight system in determining the flight trajectory was proposed. The system allows the pilot to plan the trajectory in the neighborhood of an airport, using a flight trajectory calculator. A questionnaire including, besides biographical data, mainly the cognitive elements of the pilot function subject to special changes in the framework of automation, was developed and statistically evaluated. Results show that the questionned pilots developed a knowledge of the problems resulting from automation. The realizability of the system is determined.
