This report covers the work accomplished during an inflight investigation of short duration operational helicopter missions. The project objective was to determine the level of pilot stress encountered by evaluating the changes in pilot performance, control activity, and biochemical levels that occurred during these missions. Flying activities were conducted by pilots assigned to the USAF Instrument Flight Center, Research and Development Division (USAFIFC/RD), Randolph Air Force Base, Texas. Flights were conducted in the USAFIFC's TH-1F helicopter. The subject pilots participating in the study consisted of USAFIFC Instructor Pilots, pilots attending the USAFIFC Instrument Pilot Instructor School (IPIS), and U.S. Army helicopter pilots assigned to the Fort Sam Houston Flight Detachment based at Randolph AFB.
