Nonmotion flight simulation development of slow flight and stall tasks for use in ab initio flight training

The ever-increasing computational power used to drive ground-based flight simulations and flight training devices (FTDs) is enabling higher levels of fidelity at lower costs while accurately modeling specific aspects of flight. With an appropriate level of fidelity, nonmotion fight simulators can serve as a means for training ab initio pilots for slow flight and stall tasks. Due to the visual nature of these flight tasks, and the absence of full proprioceptive and vestibular cues during nonmotion simulated flight, modifications to data derived from flight testing and used in aircraft modeling can accentuate other sensory modalities to deliver an effective simulated flight training environment.
