Summary: |
The aim of this article is summarise the role and importance of flight
simulation in civil aviation, notably its beneficial effect on the environment and its
increasing impact upon training strategies. It has been prepared to provide
background information to assist decision makers in government, industry, airlines
and academia. Much of the training previously undertaken in aircraft is now
conducted in flight simulators. Flight simulation is critical to the operation of civil and
militry aircraft organizations. International standards for flight simulation training
devices have been established to ensure consistency for operators, regulators and
manufacturers. Flight simulation continues to make a mojor contribution to improving
aviation safety. Compared with airborne training, flight simulation reduces markedly
the impact on the environment. A wide range of synthetic training devices has beed
developed for specific flight training tasks. For certain training tasks, effective training
can be achieved with low fidelity synthetic devices. Advanced in computer technology
enable flight simulation to provide very effective flight crew training. Flight simulation
is used from basic training through to zero flight-time training for civil airlines and to
mission rehearsal for the armed forces. |
