Abstract "This is the transcript of the Joint FAA/Industry Symposium on Level B Airplane Simulator Aeromodel Validation Requirements held on March 13-14, 1996, at the Washington Dulles Airport Hilton. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the aeromodeling considerations associated with updating FAA qualification requirements for Level B flight simulators. [...] Flight simulator technology has advanced significantly during the past decade, one result of which is that device capability has increased while cost has declined. However, for commuter airlines, cost continues to be an obstacle to flight simulator access, particularly for recurrent training. We believe that it may be possible to revise Level B simulator qualification procedures and requirements to enhance affordability, without degrading the standards or quality of performance for such equipment. The first step in this endeavor is a comprehensive review, beginning with aeromodeling and flight data considerations. [...] Attendance at the meeting was by invitation only and included selected experts from industry, academia, and government in the disciplines of aerodynamic modeling, aircraft flight test instrumentation, simulator qualification, aircraft certification, and air carrier pilot training."--Excerpted from Preface (page 1).
