A fixed base simulator study of an advanced helicopter instrument display utilizing translational acceleration, velocity and position information is reported. The simulation involved piloting a heavy helicopter using the Integrated Trajectory Error Display (ITED) in a precision hover task. The test series explored two basic areas. The effect on hover accuracy of adding acceleration information was of primary concern. Also of interest was the operators' ability to use degraded information derived from less sophisticated sources. The addition of translational acceleration to a display containing velocity and position information did not appear to improve the hover performance significantly. However, displayed acceleration information seemed to increase the damping of the man machine system. Finally, the pilots could use translational information synthesized from attitude and angular acceleration as effectively as perfect acceleration.
