  1. Glider Flight SimulationCLGC Spring 2009 Seminar Scott Manley –CFIG, Tow Pilot Trace Lewis –Private ASEL, Glider (Silver, 5 State Records)

  2. Agenda • Introduction • Applications of Glider Flight Simulation • Flight Simulation Demonstrations • Question / Answer • Closing Announcements

  3. Applications of Glider Flight Simulation Improving Glider Flight Instruction Maintaining Proficiency Developing/Refining New Skills Promoting the Sport of Soaring

  4. Improving Glider Flight InstructionInstructional Challenges #1Aircraft make Lousy Classrooms #2 Classrooms make Lousy Aircraft #3 Insufficient Opportunity to Practice #4 Weather Never Cooperates #5 Some Valuable Lessons are Never Experienced • Too Dangerous • Locally Unavailable

  5. Improving Glider Flight InstructionFlight Simulation as a Solution Concept Learning via Visualization Procedural Training (Demonstration/Performance) Practice makes Perfect (the Principle of Exercise) Controlling the Weather (Continuity) Expanded Experience Distance Learning (Leveraging the Network)

  6. Demonstrations • Flight #1 • Visualization (Views, Zoom, Panning) • Other Sensory Feedback (3D Sound, Tactile) • Virtual Reality (Turn-points, Thermals) • Instructional Super-Weapon • Time Control (Replay, Re-Fly, Recovery) • Environmental Control (Task, Weather, Aircraft, Event Options) • Flight #2 • Replay Library • Stall/Spin – Base to Final

  7. Maintaining ProficiencyKeeping Your Head in the Game • Normal Operations • Aero-tow • Turn Coordination • Stall Recovery • Finding, Entering, Using Lift • Traffic Patterns / Landings • Emergencies / Dangerous Situations • Rope Break • Landing Out • Stall/Spin Recovery • Unusual Attitude Recovery

  8. Developing/Refining New SkillsCross-Country / Navigation • Weather • Finding and Using Lift(Condor) • Dealing with Changing Conditions(Condor, FSX) • Using Real World Wx(FSX) • Navigation • Learning to Use a PDA(Condor) • Practicing Dead-Reckoning and Pilotage(FSX) • Fly a cross country the night before the flight • Gain geographic knowledge of a new contest area

  9. Developing/Refining New SkillsCompetition • Defining Tasks • Developing/Practicing Strategies • Analyzing Flights • Export .igc File / Review in SeeYou • Competing On-line • FAI Compliant • Realistic Situations/Challenges • Traffic Management • Compare Results • Competing Against Yourself

  10. Developing/Refining New SkillsNew Experiences • New Sailplanes • High-performance Skills • New Sites • World-wide • New Forms of Soaring • Ridge • Wave • New Situations • Winch Launches • Formation Flying • New Thrills • Aerobatics

  11. Demonstrations • Flight #3 • Trace Races Himself around a Task • Flight #4 • Winch Launch into an Aerobatic routine

  12. Question / Answer

  13. Announcements • Opportunities to Fly the Simulator • During Breaks • Over Lunch • After the Seminar • Cumulus Soaring • Condor - The Competition Soaring Simulator • $49 • Special Guest Appearance
