Training Effectiveness of Platform Motion: Review of Motion Research Involving the Advanced Simulator for Pilot Training and the Simulator for Air-to-Air Combat
Abstract
This report presents a summary review of the transfer-of-training studies conducted by the Operations Training Division of the Air Force Human Resources Laboratory investigating the training effectiveness of six-degrees-of- freedom platform motion cueing. A total of six studies are reviewed. Of the six studies, five were conducted on the Advanced Simulator for Pilot Training (ASPT) located at Williams AFB and one on the Simulator for Air-to-Air Combat (SAAC) located at Luke AFB. Tasks investigated included basic and advanced contact, instruments, basic fighter maneuvers, and conventional weapons delivery. The review of each study contains a statement of objectives, a summary of the method and results, a data excerpt representative of the findings, and a critique. The report also contains a description of the research strategy from which the studies were derived, a discussion of transfer-of-training methodology, and a discussion of the relationship between the results of these six studies and research findings from other agencies or facilities. Implications for future research are discussed.
