A seat cushion for providing realistic acceleration cues to an aircraft simulator pilot was developed. A plurality of contiguous seat cushion compartments, each including a pressure controlled air cell with a noncompressible surface underneath, were provided. Means were available for initially controlling the air pressure in the air cells to allow the tuberosities of the simulator pilot to touch the noncompressible surface and thus begin to compress the flesh near these areas. During a simulated flight means were provided for controlling the air pressure in the cells to simulate the events that occur in a seat cushion during actual flight.
