Abstract
This paper describes a fixed base engineering flight simulator that has been built and tested at Beech Aircraft Corp. The computer portion is general purpose analog so that any aircraft may be defined. Comments concerning the equations of motion and those used to describe airplane aerodynamics and power effects are included. The aircraft cockpit used for the simulation is described in the paper as well as the computer and its contribution to the system. A three axis control force feel system has been developed at relatively low cost to provide control forces.
