Abstract
We present an efficient hybrid method to simulate the longitudinal development of ultra-high energy air showers, accounting in detail for muon production and fluctuations. Applying this hybrid method to the simulation of extensive air showers with QGSJET and SIBYLL, the predictions of the two hadronic interaction models are discussed in light of their importance for the longitudinal shower profile and muon production.
