Flight simulator investigation on the approach path parameters for MLS curved approaches

The present flight simulator study has been addressed to the evaluation of the approach path parameters for curved approach paths. A number of seven oblique approach paths has been investigated, varying in both straight final length and oblique angle. The investigation was carried out for various operating minima (decision height, runway visual...

Flight simulator experiments concerning take-off visibility minima

The Working Group on All-Weather Operations of the European Civil Aviation Conference (ECAC) has initiated a study concerning the factors influencing the minium required visibility at take-off. In two special checkout sessions on the KLM Boeing 747 flight simulator, the experimental conditions have been defined for an investigation directed at...
