STUDY AND SIMULATION PROGRAM TO INVESTIGATE THE MECHANIZATION OF AN AIRCRAFT FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEM THAT EMPLOYS DIRECT LIFT. VOLUME II. PILOT-IN-THE-LOOP SIMULATION STUDY OF DIRECT LIFT CONTROL.

Abstract

A moving base pilot-in-the-loop simulator study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of direct lift control systems in improving the mission effectiveness of two types of aircraft. The missions considered were in-flight refueling, terrain following, and landing. The aircraft considered were the C-5A heavy cargo plane and the F-104 fighter-bomber. (Author)
