The problem of providing an appropriate method by which a human pilot interacts with an automated nap-of-the-earth rotorcraft guidance and control system is addressed. This problem is closely related to the broader question of what level and degree of automation is effective at reducing pilot workload during low-altitude flight missions requiring obstacle avoidance. A systematic approach for establishing the possible combinations of manual vs automatic authority over relevant guidance and control functions is first presented. From these possibilities, three candidate concepts are selected based upon their potential for practical implementation and reduction in pilot workload. This paper describes the selection of these three pilot-interaction concepts and the mathematical models for their implementation.
