• Abstract:
  Regulatory changes in response to today's airline pilot training and evaluation needs push the twin issues of effectiveness and affordability of flight simulators for use by U.S. airlines to the forefront. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is sponsoring two research programs with high pay-off potential in this area, namely, platform motion and realistic radio communications. This paper describes the rationale and the initial results of this work.
