Abstract:

The application of simulators for aircrew training in the United States Air Force is addressed. Major operating commands provided current and projected requirements for aircrew training simulators for incorporation into formal training programs together with estimates of their impact on flight training. A simulator technology overview is provided and a technology research program is proposed to support future acquisitions. Estimates of program costs are made and the magnitude of potential direct operating costs and fuel savings are presented for each of the acquisition programs. Institutional and management problems are also addressed.
