title: [Psychophysiological nature of the "aircraft perception"].
abstract: On the basis of reported data and questionnaires filled in by 26 pilots and 60 cadets an attempt was made to give a psychophysiological characterization to the "aircraft perception". It was compared with the characteristics of motor skills and thus the "aircraft perception" was interpreted as an objective property of flying skills, i.e. a specific expression of automatic actions the pilot performs when flying a plane. At a certain stage of the development of the flying skills some movements are controlled via direct sensations and perceptions of noninstrumented signals. The "aircraft sensation" unloads the pilot's attention allowing him to concentrate on other problems.
