EVER since the foundations for focused research into human dynamics during manual control were laid by Elkind [1] and

McRuer et al.[2] for compensatory tracking tasks, the modeling of pilot manual control behavior has been of interest to many applications in the field of aerospace engineering. Notable examples are the evaluation of aircraft handling qualities [3–7], the assessment of flight simulator cueing fidelity [8–13], the design of aircraft flight control systems [14], and the evaluation of manipulator characteristics [15, 16] and perspective guidance displays [17]. One of the key characteristics of pilot tracking behavior is that human operators are seen to adapt their control behavior to a myriad of external and internal factors [18]. Perhaps the most apparent form of this adaptation is the fact that human operators are seen to modify
