Research and Development for Increased Usage of Flight Simulation in Flight Training

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Canada's flight training industry is in a serious state of decline. Over the past five years, the number of Flight Training Businesses (FTBs) in Canada has decreased from 222 to 166, a failure of one in four. Seneca College's research partnerships with the flight training industry have identified the potential of increased use of flight simulation to mitigate this decline. As well, there is a as gap in applied research about simulation technology and its implementation in aviation training. The critical first component is to establish the needed capacity for applied research in the area of simulation technology.
