Six US Army Initial Entry Rotary Wing School graduates participated as subjects in a week-long study to examine the effects of extended simulated helicopter operations on pursuit tracking skills. Using a photoelectric rotary pursuit device, three fixed patterns (a square, a circle, and a triangle) were presented to each subject three times daily for 5 days. An analysis of the results revealed a significant difference in subject performance between patterns. It also revealed a statistically significant difference in performance over days on one of the patterns--the triangle. The thread woven through these results seemed to be one of the relative complexity. It suggested that the effects of sustained operations interfered with the aviator's ability to fully integrate his mental and psychomotor skills in order to meet the requirements of a more complex task.
