All,



As mentioned in an earlier post, the National Aerospace Training and Research (NASTAR) Center in Southampton, PA (north of Philadelphia) is conducting research into advanced methods of pilot training using high performance simulators capable of sustaining high g.  These are based on articulated, non-traditional centrifuge devices.  In order to conduct this research we are in need of pilots with current military or aerobatic experience who can visit the center for 5 consecutive days to participate.  The next scheduled session is 14 through 18 February, however, there will be future sessions to be scheduled later.  If you are interested in participating or know someone that is please contact me for more information.  



Best Regards,

Scott Glaser

Doc,



The idea was first tried in the late 60's but what they didn't account for was that the arm had to be extremely stiff and tuned to deal with the motions of the dome sim.  It wasn't until the last 10 years that the money and technology were available to develop a viable device.  That's why we say it's non-traditional.  It is far more advanced and different than the traditional devices the military puts you guys through (the main reason the USAF just bought one and is installing it at WPAFB).  The one at NASTAR has been operational for about 4 years and it's a blast to fly.  If you go to this link ( http://www.nastarcenter.com/training/military ) there's a video on the left of the Blue Angles wringing it out.  Enjoy.



Scott
