A project is described, dealing with the comparison of ground-based simulation and real flight. Low and high gain pilot tasks are presented. Time-dependent, frequency-dependent and subjective workload data are used for data evaluation. Three different kinds of simulation systems have been available. Selected results gained in the project are shown.
