Abstract Preliminary results are presented on the effect of enhanced hexapod motion on airline pilot recurrent evaluation, training, and transfer of training to the simulator with motion as a stand-in for the airplane (quasi-transfer). A first study, which tested “as is” motion in an FAA qualified full flight simulator, had not found any effect of motion. Under the enhanced motion conditions of the present study many effects of motion emerged that have not been previously shown in the airline-pilot training and evaluation context, indicating that motion may be required at least for pilot evaluation purposes. The implications of the results for recurrent training are also discussed.
