Flight simulators are important for pilot training, cockpit design and management, and experimental scenario analysis. This paper is focuses on a description of a simulation center which is used in the framework of training of the Czech Air Force personnel at the Department of Air Force and Aircraft Technology of the University of Defence (UoD), Brno. The workplace includes several types of flight simulators ranging from simple designs to provide pilots with a basic knowledge of cockpit designs and equipment, to complex flight simulators capable of imitating a jet plane that can be used for practicing tactical maneuvers. Designing flight simulators for military personnel differ from those applied in civilian aviation, although common issues are important to all engineers. The Learning, Evaluation, and Training Aviation Center (LET-AC) is also the workplace for training military Air Traffic Controllers (ATC), forward air controllers, Ground Control Intercept (GCI), or aerospace engineers. This cooperation enables the center to use also experimental simulators applicable for research, such as the testing flight simulator from the Department of Aerospace and Electrical systems of the University of Defence, Brno, or the disorientation flight simulator operated at the Institute of Aviation Medicine, Prague.
