7.2 Discussion Flight Simulation and Learning Effectiveness

Q Full flight simulators for fixed-wing aircraft provide training experiences in three axes of flight. Proponents claim this allows greater fidelity of actual flight conditions and enhances learning. In documented programs such as Line Oriented Flight Training, progressive sequences in the training increase complexity and numbers of events occurring simultaneously. In your view, does the added fidelity and complexity reinforce existing skills, or is it more likely to generate loss of confidence, when failing to execute correctly? Explain your rationale and provide at least one scholarly source to support your position. Post your observation (using APA format where applicable) and comment on at least one other student posting before the end of the module week in accordance with the requirements as explained in the syllabus.

I think that adding fidelity and complexity reinforces existing. Task-complexity is something which can never be avoided in flight operations, especially during emergencies. Therefore, the crew members will always have to be prepared for doing multitasking and completing complex processes of in-flight operations. The ratings provided by the instructor after completing simulation training like in case of Line Oriented Flight Training can be extremely useful for every trainee to comprehend the strengths and weaknesses in performance (Koteskey et al. 2019).
