Flight Simulation Model Skill

Purpose

Create and validate high-fidelity flight dynamics models for training simulators, engineering analysis, and flight test support.

Capabilities

• Six-DOF equation of motion implementation
• Aerodynamic database integration
• Propulsion model integration
• Landing gear and ground dynamics
• Atmospheric modeling (ISA, GRAM)
• Sensor and actuator modeling
• Model validation against flight data
• Real-time simulation interface

Usage Guidelines

• Use validated aerodynamic databases from CFD and wind tunnel data
• Implement accurate propulsion models for all operating conditions
• Include realistic actuator dynamics and limitations
• Validate model against flight test data where available
• Document model fidelity and limitations
• Ensure real-time performance for pilot-in-the-loop applications

Dependencies

• MATLAB/Simulink
• JSBSim
• FlightGear
• X-Plane

Process Integration

• AE-013: Flight Simulation Model Development
• AE-024: Flight Test Planning
