TITLE SLIDE SUGGESTIONS FOR MODERNIZING FLIGHT SIMULATION STANDARDS by Ross Schaller Kohlman Systems Research, Inc. 319 Perry Street, Lawrence, Kansas 66044 USA (785) 843-4099 www.kohlmansystems.com
AGENDA • Background • Qualification of Flight Test Data • QTG Presentation Guidelines • Clarification of Validation Tests • Future Issues
BACKGROUND • Simulator Data Packages • Aircraft Modeling • RVSM & STC Reports • Accident Investigations • Research Projects • Engineering Services
QUALIFICATION of FLIGHT TEST DATA • Currently, There are No Formal Data Recording Standards to Qualify Flight Test Data for Simulation Purposes • Can Lead to Lower Fidelity Models • Can Degrade Training Experience • Applicable Data Recording Standards Do Exist • AGARD Instrumentation & Recording Standards • NASA Technical Memoranda • US Military Standards (MIL-STD’s)
QUALIFICATION of FLIGHT TEST DATA (cont.) • Sensor Location
QUALIFICATION of FLIGHT TEST DATA (cont.) • Data Sources Issues • Over-sampling • Time Skewing
QTG PRESENTATION GUIDELINES • No Formal Standards or Guidelines • Varies from Company to Company • Even Within a Company, May Vary from Aircraft to Aircraft • Need to Define the Following for Each Test: • Minimum Level of Integration Required • Driving Parameters • Aircraft System Focus • This Will Provide • Objective Set of Baseline Requirements • Standardization of Measured Level of Fidelity
CLARIFICATION of VALIDATION TESTS • Update Validation Test Requirements • Review Latest Simulation Regulations • Clarify Ambiguities in Current Document • Suggest Alternatives Where Appropriate • Maneuver Descriptions • Include as Part of ICAO Standard • Remove Uncertainties Regarding Maneuver Content
FUTURE ISSUES • Computer Controlled Aircraft • Do Data Requirements Double? • Measure All Necessary Bus Parameters • Also Instrument & Measure Aircraft States • Unusual Attitude Training • > 95% of Validation Tests are Flown at 1G • No Definition of Unusual Attitude Validation Points • Will Increase Flight Test, Modeling, & Simulation Costs • Will Increase Risks of Collecting Data • Liability of Training Without Validation • Simulator Cockpit Red Light
