This paper discusses motion cueing in piloted flight training simulators, and presents the factors that must be taken into account when assessing the need for, and benefits of, a motion platform so that informed decisions can be taken as to its training value. These factors include the role of the simulator, the handling qualities of the vehicle concerned, the tasks the pilot is required to fly, the performance he is expected to achieve and whether training considerations require him to use a similar control strategy and control activity in the simulator as in the aircraft. Keywords: Flight simulators, Human factors engineering, Flight simulations, Great Britain. (sdw)
