hard (as hard as necessary to overcome the resisting force)
A bit of guesswork here ... On fly-by-computer aircraft, the pilot gets feedback, I believe, not from the force of air on the ailerons, etc. but from actuators pushing against his muscular movements with a force proportional to the force exerted by the air on the ailerons. In the days when there was a physical link (by wire; so why do we say "fly by wire" for modern aircraft?) between control components and joystick/rudder this was unnecessary.
Of course we, in our everyday recreational activity, can enjoy the thrills of force feedback on our games joysticks or racing wheels.
