Abstract
This paper discusses the resources that must be considered when determining the costs of pilot training systems. Material presented here is based on the authors' experience in estimating the cost of current and advanced Pilot Training Systems. The paper examines how system requirements, such as number of students, attrition rates, course syllabi, and maintenance concepts impact training system personnel and equipment cost. The discussion also shows the sensitivity of pilot training cost to variations in training system requirements and hardware characteristics.
