Abstract

The article analyzes the existing methods of determining the workload level. On the basis of the analyzed material new methodological bases for calculating the workload level of external pilots of remotely piloted aircraft were created.  While creating new methodological basis, all the relevant parameters that have an impact on the workload value were defined and grouped. The formulas for calculating these parameters were derived.
