• Abstract:
  This report presents the results of two studies that examined the effect of enhanced hexapod-simulator motion on recurrent evaluation in the simulator, on the course of recurrent training in the simulator, and on "quasi-transfer" of this recurrent training to the simulator with motion as a stand-in for the airplane. These studies were conducted in the framework of the Volpe Center’s Flight Simulator Fidelity Requirements Research Program and sponsored by the Federal Aviation Administration.
