Do you need
What we have
  • To evaluate and validate your new and completely integrated prototype aircraft simulation based on wind tunnel data (virtual flight testing)?
  • To test your new prototype aircraft in dedicated high fidelity human-in-the-loop simulations in a time and cost efficient manner?
  • A cockpit mock-up flight simulator, a full flight simulator and in-flight simulation capability to test and evaluate cockpit systems and operational procedures
  • A generic EFIS (Electronic Flight Instruments System) and Flight Management System (FMS) that can be used both in the flight simulators as well as in-flight
  • A simulator cockpit layout that can be configured to represent different types of aircraft with for instance side stick, centre stick or control column and wheel flight controls
  • An aircraft simulation infrastructure that can be customised for a wide range of existing and prototype aircraft models based on wind tunnel or computational fluid dynamics data (CFD)
  • An environment simulation (as part of the simulation infrastructure) including sound, weather, traffic and Air Traffic Control to support realistic and versatile tests and evaluations
  • The capabilities to develop, tune and validate simulation models of existing and new prototype aircraft, including stall modelling, supporting your aircraft design process
  • A flexible software environment which enables efficient integration of avionics software, cockpit displays and hardware-in-the-loop. Software languages include Matlab Simulink, C, C++, Fortran or any customer specific language
  • Knowledge and experience to design and conduct experiments to evaluate and validate cockpit systems and operational procedures
  • Tools for monitoring and recording any variables of interest in the simulation
  • Video registration of cockpit overview, the individual pilots and cockpit displays
  • Tools to measure human factors which produce data on the workload of the pilots and the efficiency of man machine interfaces
  • A dedicated staff of research engineers and flight simulation specialists to support your human-in-the-loop experiments
  • A dedicated flight test operations staff, including engineering test pilots, flight test engineers and certification specialists
  • VINCENT, a cockpit design tool
