Notes 

6.i. .............

The simulator must show that the seg-

ment of the ground visible from the 
simulator flight deck is the same as 
from the airplane flight deck (within 
established tolerances) when at the 
correct airspeed, in the landing con-
figuration, at the appropriate height 
above the touchdown zone, and with 
appropriate visibility.

X  X  X  X  This will show the modeling accuracy of RVR, 

glideslope, and localizer for a given weight, con-
figuration, and speed within the airplane’s oper-
ational envelope for a normal approach and land-
ing. 

6.j. .............

The simulator must provide visual cues 

necessary to assess sink rates (pro-
vide depth perception) during take-
offs and landings, to include: 

(1) Surface on runways, taxiways, and 

ramps. 

(2) Terrain features. 

X X X 

6.k. ............

The simulator must provide for accu-

rate portrayal of the visual environ-
ment relating to the simulator attitude.

Visual attitude vs. simulator attitude is a comparison 

of pitch and roll of the horizon as displayed in the 
visual scene compared to the display on the atti-
tude indicator. 

6.l. .............

The simulator must provide for quick 

confirmation of visual system color, 
RVR, focus, and intensity.

An SOC is required. 

X X 

6.m. ..........

The simulator must be capable of pro-

ducing at least 10 levels of occulting.

X X 

6.n. ...........

Night Visual Scenes. When used in 

training, testing, or checking activi-
ties, the simulator must provide night 
visual scenes with sufficient scene 
content to recognize the airport, the 
terrain, and major landmarks around 
the airport. The scene content must 
allow a pilot to successfully accom-
plish a visual landing. Scenes must 
include a definable horizon and typ-
ical terrain characteristics such as 
fields, roads and bodies of water and 
surfaces illuminated by airplane land-
ing lights.
