The Future of Flight Simulation

The Operator Performance Laboratory applies human-centered principles to design and evaluate human-in-the-loop transportation systems. The OPL performs research on a diverse array of platforms, including fixed and rotary-wing aircraft, instrumented vehicles, and earth-moving machines. The OPL's research leads to products that improve safety, decrease workload, and enhance capabilities.

ok this doesnt make sense. you virtually fly and airplane? oooooookkkkkkk..... why not just fly it?! maybe im missing te point

[diakrite]

They apparently never heard of "KISS"... Indeed, aside from the telemetrics on the (sim)-pilot's performance ,I truly fail to see the point AND the connection Sim-Real plane.

I think I saw this plane flying a couple days ago over Iowa City. Haha I got lucky stumbling upon this one. MAn that looks Gordons old hanger

I actually had a chance to fly this thing its pretty cool
