Integration Flight Deck Simulator

The Integration Flight Deck (IFD) Simulator is a duplicate of the NASA Langley Boeing 757-200 aircraft cockpit. The simulator is driven by a Boeing 757-200 aircraft dynamics mathematical model. The cockpit includes standard ship’s instruments representative of a line operations Boeing 757-200 aircraft. There is a heads-up display mounted in front of the pilot. There are two control display units located in a center aisle stand mounted between the two pilots. Each pilot has a column/wheel control loader system for pitch/roll control and a set of control loaded rudder pedals. The cockpit’s visual system is a panorama system, which provides 200 degrees horizontal field-of-view and 40 degrees vertical field-of-view. The visual system is driven by a state-of-the-art computer generated image system.
