Flight simulators at the Frontiers of Flight Museum

Flight Trainer Gallery

This gallery focuses on the development and use of flight training aids to advance the safety and reliability of manned flight. Pilots learn to fly in flight simulators. They are used for a variety of reasons, for design and development of the aircraft itself. The simulators are also used for research into aircraft characteristics and control handling qualities. Several different devices are utilized in modern flight training. Using demonstration trainers learn how to do basic cockpit procedures. So much Fun at the Frontiers of Flight Museum.
