General simulator requirements 

Notes 

5.c. ...........

The simulator must have a motion (force cue-

ing) system that produces cues at least 
equivalent to those of a six-degrees-of-free-
dom, synergistic platform motion system 
(i.e., pitch, roll, yaw, heave, sway, and 
surge).

An SOC is required. 

X X 

5.d. ...........

The simulator must provide for the recording 

of the motion system response time.

An SOC is required. 

X X X 

5.e. ...........

The simulator must provide motion effects pro-

gramming to include the following:.

(1) Runway rumble, oleo deflections, effects of 

ground speed, uneven runway, characteris-
tics. 

X X X 

(2) Buffets due to transverse flow effects. 
(3) Buffet during extension and retraction of 

landing gear. 

(4) Buffet due to retreating blade stall. 
(5) Buffet due to vortex ring (settling with 

power). 

(6) Representative cues resulting from touch-

down. 

(7) High speed rotor vibrations. 
(8) Tire failure dynamics ...................................

(9) Engine malfunction and engine damage 
(10) Airframe ground strike 
(11) Motion vibrations that result from atmos-

pheric disturbances.

X  For air turbulence, general purpose disturb-

ance models are acceptable if, when used, 
they produce test results that approximate 
demonstrable flight test data. 

5.f. ............

The simulator must provide characteristic mo-

tion vibrations that result from operation of 
the helicopter (for example, retreating blade 
stall, extended landing gear, settling with 
power) in so far as vibration marks an event 
or helicopter state, which can be sensed in 
the flight deck.

The simulator should be programmed and in-

strumented in such a manner that the char-
acteristic buffet modes can be measured 
and compared to helicopter data.

Visual System

..................................................

Additional horizontal field-of-view capability 

may be added at the sponsor’s discretion 
provided the minimum field-of-view is re-
tained. 

6.a. ...........

The simulator must have a visual system pro-

viding an out-of-the-flight deck view.

X X X 

6.b. ...........

The simulator must provide a continuous field- 

of-view of at least 75

° 

horizontally and 30

° 

vertically per pilot seat. Both pilot seat visual 
systems must be operable simultaneously. 
The minimum horizontal field-of-view cov-
erage must be plus and minus one-half (

1

2

of the minimum continuous field-of-view re-
quirement, centered on the zero degree azi-
muth line relative to the aircraft fuselage. An 
SOC must explain the geometry of the in-
stallation.

An SOC is required.
