2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, visual approach, landing, and takeoff training, which is flight training and visual approach, landing, and takeoff training for small aircraft, has mainly been conducted using actual airplanes. For small aircraft, even if the training is conducted using an actual airplane instead of a simulator, it is not a big financial burden and the training effect is great. However, attempting to conduct approach, landing, and takeoff training for large aircraft using an actual airplane would be a huge burden both economically and on the global environment. Current training includes instrument flight training,
Of the visual approach landing and takeoff training, which is emergency operation training and visual approach landing and takeoff training, instrument flight training and emergency operation training are conducted using an aircraft simulator, while visual approach landing and takeoff training is conducted using an actual airplane. Because there is no visual approach, landing, and takeoff training simulator suitable for visual approach, landing, and takeoff training, current visual approach, landing, and takeoff training for large aircraft requires 100 or more training sessions per person, depending on the type of training. The approach, landing, and takeoff training for this large aircraft is
It is a huge burden both economically and on the global environment.

As mentioned above, current aircraft simulators are manufactured primarily for emergency operations and instrument flight training, and are unsuitable for visual approach, landing, and takeoff training in terms of performance, cost, and utility. What is required in the landing training for visual approach, landing, and takeoff training is the intuitive acquisition of an approach angle of about 3 degrees relative to the runway, and the acquisition of the accompanying landing and touchdown techniques, but current aircraft simulators Currently, it is not used for landing training as it is manufactured primarily for emergency operations and instrument flight training.

In the case of normal training, a pilot undergoing training sits in the pilot seat 1, as shown in FIG. A pilot operation section 2 is provided in the pilot seat 1. Specifically, the steering wheel,
Other operating devices may be mentioned. An instrument section 3 is provided in front of the operator's seat 1. The instrument section 3 is equipped with a speedometer, altimeter, elevation meter, course, attitude, clock, control device, flap device, and an interphone at an appropriate position for simple communication necessary for visual approach, landing, and takeoff. . Additionally, install a radio altimeter if necessary. It is also designed to produce a shock sound when landing.

[0008] A device that can perform position reset and wind direction/speed change operations to instantly move the position of the aircraft in order to measure the training effect, to a location that can be operated from both the pilot seat 1 and the instructor seat 4. is provided in the instructor operation section 5. Also, equipment that can record flight conditions will be installed at appropriate locations. The screen 6 is provided in front of the pilot's seat 1 and the instructor's seat, as well as across both sides, and can display an image of the airport stored in the memory as seen from a desired position. The image of the airport stored in memory is a daytime image that focuses on runway markings. Add night images focusing on the runway light system for night training if necessary.

This embodiment further includes a memory connected to the pilot operation section 2, the instrument section 3, the instructor operation section 5, and the screen 6;
It has a computer section 7. The memory and computer section 7 operate the instrument section 3 and change the screen 6 in response to operations on the operator operation section 2 and the instructor operation section 5.

Specifically, the aircraft visual approach, landing, and takeoff training simulator according to this embodiment is used as follows, for example. First, position reset is activated to move the aircraft to a position 5 miles and 1500 feet above the landing site. It is preferable that the operator also be able to operate this position reset during self-study. By resetting the position for landing, the computer 2, memory, and computer 1 are activated, and the screen 6 is the approach and landing screen from an altitude of 1500 feet on the airport perimeter route or straight approach stored in the memory. Become. Next, when the pilot operates the pilot operation section 2 or the instructor operation section 5, the computer 4, memory, computer 3, and computer 1 perform calculations in response to the operation, and calculate the position from approach to the airport to landing. According to the change, the instrument section 3 is operated and the screen 6 is changed. Also, when landing, there is a landing shock sound. This shock sound is small or loud depending on whether the landing was successful or not, and informs the training pilot and instructor of the success or failure of the landing. Further, the flight status is displayed on the flight status record display panel of the instructor operation unit 5, and the height deviation from the approach path and the circumferential route are also continuously recorded as required. It would be even more effective if various partial flight records such as speed, attitude, and direction could be printed out.

As another example, in the case of takeoff training,
By resetting the aircraft to a preset takeoff position, computer 2, memory,
The computer 1 is activated, and the screen 6 becomes the screen of the takeoff starting point of the airport stored in the memory. Next, when the pilot operates the pilot operation section 2 or the instructor operates the instructor operation section 5, the computer 4, memory, computer 3, and computer 1 perform calculations in response to the operation, and the changes in the takeoff position at the airport are performed. Accordingly, the meter section 3 is operated and the screen 6 is changed. In the case of takeoff, a screen up to 500 feet in altitude is considered sufficient for training.

It is desirable that the position reset function allows the position, speed, direction, etc. of the aircraft to be selected in accordance with the training form of the person who ordered the simulator. For example, the takeoff position on the runway, 3 miles or 5 miles on the approach line, or the altitude, speed, direction, etc. on the runway.
