Full flight simulators are renowned for their superior realism and accuracy in reproducing all of the operational characteristics of a specific aircraft type. Normal and abnormal situations, including all of the environmental conditions encountered in actual flight, can be precisely simulated. The use of simulators has increased due to advances in technology and the significant cost savings provided by flight simulation training, compared with real flight time. Today's commercial flight simulators are so sophisticated that pilots proficient on one aircraft type can be completely trained on the simulator for a new type before ever flying the aircraft itself.

The main elements of a flight simulator are the cockpit, motion system, visual system, computer, and instructor/operator station. The cockpit provides a suitable environment for the crew in terms of the location, appearance, and feel of controls and displays. All modern simulators are mounted on a hydraulically operated motion platform, capable of imparting to the crew the impression of aircraft movement, adding to the fidelity of the observed response to flight control inputs and external disturbances. Motion cues are particularly important in critical handling tasks, and during instrument flight. The visual system presents the view seen by the pilot of the external visual scene. Advanced technology is needed to achieve representative scene details over a large field of view. The computer must process in real time the mathematical models which represent the aircraft, its systems, and the operating environment. It receives signals from the cockpit, and provides inputs to the other elements in the simulation. 中国航空网 www.aero.cn 航空翻译 www.aviation.cn 本文链接地址：EUROCONTROL MANUAL FOR AIRSPACE PLANNING 2(110)
