Book excerpt: This project evaluated several methods for measuring pilot performance in a general aviation simulator and examined the relationship between performance and workload. An Automated Performance Measurement (APM) system was designed for use in a flight simulator which was instrumented for digital data collection. Performance rating was accomplished by three independent observers. Workload was assessed using a real-time subjective input system with which pilots provided workload estimates every minute. Two groups of pilots participated in the experiment: ten professional high-time pilots and ten recently qualified instrument pilots. Both the APM and the observer ratings showed significant performance differences between the two pilot groups. The automated technique showed more of a spread, however, among individuals in the professional (masters) group. The newly qualified pilots (journeymen) reported significantly higher workload than their masters counterparts and their performance was significantly worse.

Book excerpt: Flight simulators provide a complete quantitative record of a pilot's flying performance. Evaluating this record is complicated by the volume of data and by its fine detail, dozens of flight parameters, sampled many times per second. Automated performance measurement systems (APMS) reduce the volume of data to an amount which is manageable and understandable. The usual APMS is aircraft state oriented. The APMS keys on aircraft state (e.g., X-Y position, bank angle) to define intervals over which performance data are integrated. This PAMS is relatively insensitive to pilots' intentions and so may average performances which had differing objectives, based only on their having occurred at the same point during the task sequence. An alternative APMS has been developed which is piloted oriented. This APMS defines measurement intervals based on control inputs. Control inputs are identified by discrete changes in flight path. These intervals are psychologically relevant in that they begin with a goal-directed control input and end with a countervailing input. By relating performance in the pilot defined intervals to state defined intervals, it is possible to quantify performance on given flight segments (e.g., a level turn), and to specify factors which lead to a given level of performance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers the first complete account of more than sixty years of international research on In-Flight Simulation and related development of electronic and electro-optic flight control system technologies (“Fly-by-Wire” and “Fly-by-Light”). They have provided a versatile and experimental procedure that is of particular importance for verification, optimization, and evaluation of flying qualities and flight safety of manned or unmanned aircraft systems. Extensive coverage is given in the book to both fundamental information related to flight testing and state-of-the-art advances in the design and implementation of electronic and electro-optic flight control systems, which have made In-Flight Simulation possible. Written by experts, the respective chapters clearly show the interdependence between various aeronautical disciplines and in-flight simulation methods. Taken together, they form a truly multidisciplinary book that addresses the needs of not just flight test engi neers, but also other aeronautical scientists, engineers and project managers and historians as well. Students with a general interest in aeronautics as well as researchers in countries with growing aeronautical ambitions will also find the book useful. The omission of mathematical equations and in-depth theoretical discussions in favor of fresh discussions on innovative experiments, together with the inclusion of anecdotes and fascinating photos, make this book not only an enjoyable read, but also an important incentive to future research. The book, translated from the German by Ravindra Jategaonkar, is an extended and revised English edition of the book Fliegende Simulatoren und Technologieträger , edited by Peter Hamel and published by Appelhans in 2014.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Performance evaluation is an essential part of effective instructional research. The evaluation of complex psycho-motor performances is difficult because they are typically transitory; there is no permanent record, trace, or product after the performance is completed to indicate the characteristics of the performance. The performance of student pilots in the flight simulator or in the aircraft exemplifies the difficulties stemming from the complexity of the task and from the transitory nature of performance transiency. This report describes the results of a methodological study carried out to solve these problems for the purpose of evaluating student pilot performance in a flight simulator.

This book was released on 1982 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several avionics manufacturers have announced plans to produce electronic flight instrument systems (EFIS) for general aviation aircraft. In recognition of the need for information concerning the impact of these new systems on pilot performance, the FAA has initiated a two-phased research program devoted to planning and conducting exploratory evaluations that will assess the ability of general aviation pilots to operate EFIS-equipped aircraft. The results of the first phase of this project are presented in this report. The objectives of this phase were to determine the specific goals of the exploratory evaluations and to develop general guidance--i.e., a conceptual approach--for their conduct. The conceptual approach is described in terms of (1) the information needed from the planned evaluations, (2) the general design of the overall study, (3) requirements for the performance measurement systems that would be employed to collect data and for the analysis of that data, (4) requirements for test facilities and equipment, and (5) procedures for selecting and training evaluation subjects. While the conceptual approach that was developed is specific to the planned research, it is discussed and described in general terms to increase its utility as general guidance for planning evaluations of pilot performance.

Book excerpt: This study continues the investigation of the training effectiveness of Device 2F87F in fleet replacement training. The study examines: comparative data on first-tour pilots trained on principal P-3 flignt tasks without correlative simulator training; training trials required to achieve proficiency in the flight simulator and in the aircraft; and performance in the flight simulator as a predictor of later performance in the P-3. The analyses considered: the number of in-flight hours required to complete the Familiarization/Instrument phase of Fleet Readiness Squadron (FRS) without previous training in Device 2F87F; transfer effectiveness ratios for Device 2F87F; and correlations between undergraduate pilot training (UPT) flight averages, UPT flight hours, and FRS performance.

This book was released on 1980 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this effort was to design and implement an automated performance measurement (APM) system in the Advanced Simulator for Pilot Training (ASPT). This report documents that development effort and describes the current status of the measurement system. It was assumed that superior flying performance in the aircraft or the simulator has several characteristics which are reflected by available flight parameters. These include (a) maintaining certain aircraft state parameters, such as airspeed or altitude, close to some defined criterion value, (b) avoiding excessive rates and acceleration forces so that the maneuver is executed smoothly, (c) accomplishing these objectives with the least amount of effort; that is, by minimizing control inputs, and (d) not exceeding procedural or safety limits established for the maneuver. To date, the following scenarios have been implemented on the ASPT: (a) Transition Tasks - Straight and Level, Airspeed Changes, Turns, Climbs/Descents; (b) Takeoff/Approach/Landing Tasks - Takeoffs, Tech Order Climbs, Slow Flight, Configuration Changes, Straight-in Approaches, Overhead Patterns, Touch-and-Go's; (c) Instrument Tasks - Rate Climbs/Descents, Vertical S-A, Vertical S-D, GCA, Proceed Direct to VOR; (d) Aerobatics - Aileron Rolls, Barrel Roll, Loop, Split S, Cloverleaf, Cuban 8, Lazy 8; and (e) Formation - Fingertip.

This book was released on 2018-09-15 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Personal computer based flight simulators are expanding opportunities for providing low-cost pilot training. One advantage of these devices is the opportunity to incorporate instructional features into training scenarios that might not be cost effective with earlier systems. Research was conducted to evaluate the utility of different instructional features using a coordinated level turn as an aircraft maneuvering task. In study I, a comparison was made between automated computer grades of performance with certified flight instructors grades. Every one of the six student volunteers conducted a flight with level turns at two different bank angles. The automated computer grades were based on prescribed tolerances on bank angle, airspeed and altitude. Two certified flight instructors independently examined the video tapes of heads up and instrument displays of the flights and graded them. The comparison of automated grades with the instructors grades was based on correlations between them. In study II, a 2x2 between subjects factorial design was used to devise and conduct an experiment. Comparison was made between real time training and above real time training and between feedback and no feedback in training. The performance measure to monitor progress in training was based on deviations in bank angle and altitude. The performance measure was developed after completion of the experiment including the training and test flights. It was not envisaged before the experiment. The experiment did not include self- instructions as it was originally planned, although feedback by experimenter to the trainee was included in the study.Ali, Syed Firasat and Khan, Javed Khan and Rossi, Marcia J. and Crane, Peter and Heath, Bruce E. and Knighten, Tremaine and Culpepper, ChristiArmstrong Flight Research CenterPERSONAL COMPUTERS; FLIGHT SIMULATORS; DISPLAY DEVICES; PILOT TRAINING; LOW COST; REAL TIME OPERATION; EDUCATION

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the complexity and capability of flight simulators have matched the growth of aerospace technology, there has until now been no textbook dealing specifically with the design and construction of flight simulators. This is a primary purpose of Flight Simulation. Written in collaboration with a number of internationally known specialists, the book considers the subject in three sections. Firstly it introduces the concept of simulation in order to identify the essential elements which make up the modern flight simulator. The development of these elements is also traced through the historical evolution of flight simulation. The main section of the book commences with an exposition of the mathematical models into dynamic physical devices capable of representing the response of a specific aircraft and its systems. The simulation of the flight environment is also covered in relation to cockpit motion systems and methods of representing the external visual scene. Another important aspect of simulation, the design of instructor and operating stations, is given separate attention. The final section considers the application of flight simulation to research and training and concludes with an appraisal of future prospects and developments.
