The acquisition of training media for the Nordic Standard Helicopter is in progress. The objective of this study is to assess the contribution of a motion cueing system to helicopter flight simulation. The goal is to determine the feasibility of maintaining high and intended training efficiency using a technically somewhat simplified training simulator, thus the primary focus is the consequence of excluding the motion system. An introduction is given to psycho-physiological reactions in humans as a result of motion, as well as aspects of training and flight simulation technology. The results from previous and present research on motion systems are discussed. Humans have an excellent ability to adapt to the present situation and will if needed change the control behavior in order to meet the mission objectives. There is no strong evidence supporting the need for motion to perform specific mission types. However, the addition of motion has shown significant benefits for certain kinds of tasks/maneuvers performed during particular conditions. Considering the fact that most tasks performed in a simulator are not critical to motion, it should be possible to distribute a substantial amount of training to non-motion simulators. A recommendation is given on use of training media.
