Operator Workload in the UH-60A Black Hawk: Crew Results vs. Tawl Model Predictions

Abstract
An empirical study was undertaken to collect real-time workload estimates of pilots and copilots performing a resupply mission in a UH-60A flight simulator. Overall and peak workload (OW and PW) ratings were collected for twelve mission segments. These ratings were compared with OW and PW values predicted by the Task Analysis/Workload (TAWL) simulation model. High correlations were found between TAWL-based predictions and crew results for OW (r = 0.82 to 0.95; p < .01). Lower correlations were found for PW (r = 0.62; p < .05).
