Potential Modeling and Simulation Contributions to Air Education and Training Command Flying Training: Specialized Undergraduate Pilot Training - Executive Summary
Abstract
This article recommends the development of certain modeling and simulation technologies as part of a modernization effort for Specialized Undergraduate Pilot Training (SUPT). Recommendations are based on a study conducted by the Aircrew Training Research Division of Armstrong Laboratory that was undertaken at the request of the Air Education and Training Command (AETC/XOR). The study's purpose was to assess current training challenges within SUPT to determine where modeling and simulation tools may offer solutions. Six primary problem areas were identified and analyzed based upon extensive data collected during pilot interviews in a typical pilot training squadron. Based on findings, the study recommends specific technologies as solutions. Functional characteristics and applications of these technologies are described and discussed in the context of training effectiveness and efficiency.
