The fixed-based fixed-wing variable stability platform is inspired by the F-16 VISTA aircraft. This is the only flying 5-DOF variable stability jet aircraft in the world. This aircraft includes direct lift flaps. This demonstration catalog is inspired by decades of experience, military standards, and variable stability pilot training at test pilot schools around the world. […]
The fixed-based fixed-wing variable stability platform is based on a Ryan Navion aircraft. This is the only flying 6-DOF variable stability aircraft in the world. This aircraft includes direct lift flaps and side force generators. This demonstration catalog is inspired by decades of experience, civilian standards, and variable stability pilot training in Calspan’s Learjet. Each […]
The motion-based rotary-wing variable stability platform is based on NTPS’ MBB B0-105 helicopter. This combines a high fidelity motion system with seating for a pilot and flight test engineer, a flight identified dynamics model of the actual helicopter, and a variety of VSS features custom programmed by flight level engineering. This demonstration catalog is inspired […]
The National Test Pilot School (NTPS) and Flight Level Engineering (FLE) are excited to announce a new Memorandum of Agreement (MOA), marking the beginning of a collaborative effort to advance flight test training, engineering development, and aerospace research. This partnership will focus on: Flight Test Training & Education – Enhancing professional development for test pilots and flight test engineers. Joint Research […]
We have three advanced VSS simulators: a motion-based rotary-wing platform, a fixed-based General Aviation (GA) fixed-wing platform, and a fixed-based high performance jet platform. Features common to all three simulators Each simulator includes a high fidelity visual system, a dynamics model of each respective aircraft, and a variety of VSS features custom programmed by flight […]
