Abstract
A system and method for adjusting an operator workload during a travel segment includes tracking inputs by an operator into an avionic system responsive to a request from a flight control computer during one or more flights of an aircraft, determining a rate at which the inputs by the operator are made, and determining an operator workload based on the rate. The operator workload can be adjusted when the operator workload exceeds a predetermined threshold.
