In light of the modern aetiopathogenic views, a brief review was made concerning possible causes of operational fatigue to which flying personnel in general are exposed in the exercise of flying activity. The author then describes and analyzes the meaning and importance of the various stressing factors that constitute the physical and psychic workload to which the helicopter pilot is subjected in performing his professional activities. Also analyzed are the influences exercised, both separately and jointly, on the genesis of flight fatigue in helicopter pilots by stressing and fatiguing effects of vibrations, noise, and psycho-emotional and psycho-sensorial factors related to the variety and danger of utilization of this modern aircraft. Such an analytical investigation enables the author to conclude that one must admit that helicopter piloting involves a psycho-physical workload certainly no less than that required by more powerful and faster aircraft.
根据现代病因学观点，对飞行人员在飞行活动中普遍面临的操作疲劳的可能原因进行了简要回顾。作者随后描述并分析了构成直升机飞行员在执行其专业活动时所承受的身心工作负荷的各种压力因素的意义和重要性。还分别分析了振动、噪音以及与这种现代飞机使用的多样性和危险性相关的心理情绪和心理感觉因素的压力和疲劳效应，对直升机飞行员飞行疲劳产生的单独和共同影响。这样的分析性调查使作者能够得出结论，必须承认直升机驾驶所涉及的身心工作负荷肯定不少于更强大、更快的飞机所要求的负荷。
