Advanced Simulation in Undergraduate Pilot Training

The Advanced Simulation in Undergraduate Pilot Training installation at Williams Air Force Base in Arizona was one of the first flight training simulators. It simulates a Cessna T-37. The installation linked two simulators on six degree-of-freedom hydraulic platforms to multiple computers (SEL Systems 86). It used seven displays around each user to simulate their view from the cockpit. On the displays polygonal graphics were displayed representing objects in their surroundings, scaled to distance. An additional instructor station allows additional input for the game on a console with a CRT screen.
