A ground-based simulator experiment was conducted to investigate the influence of simulator cue variations on helicopter autorotation landing-task performance. Using the NASA Ames Research Center Vertical Motion Simulator (VMS), variations were made in motion-system performance and selection of either longitudinal or lateral linear acceleration cues. Analysis of landing performance statistics and pilot commentary revealed that task performance changed with degraded motion cues. However, fixed base (no motion) could provide acceptable landing performance if adequate visual cues were present. Lontitudinal linear-acceleration cues assisted one pilot's control of the landing forward speed, while lateral linear-acceleration cues assisted in control of lateral drift or sideslip. Variations were also made in the content and details of visual landing scenes. Pilot commentary collected on the use of three landing scenes stressed the importance of receiving consistent, easily recognized, position, attitude, and speed cues from the visual scene. The importance of subtle aural cues to pilot acceptance of the simulation was also noted.
