This paper describes a transfer-of-training study in the NASA Ames Vertical Motion Simulator (VMS). Sixty-one general aviation pilots, divided in four groups, trained on four challenging commercial transport tasks with four motion conditions: no motion, small hexapod, large hexapod, and VMS motion. Then, every pilot repeated the tasks with VMS motion to determine if training with different motion conditions had an effect. New objective motion criteria guided the selection of the motion parameters for the small and large hexapod conditions. Considering results that were statistically significant, or marginally, the motion condition used in training affected 1) longitudinal and lateral touchdown location; 2) the number of secondary stall warnings in a stall recovery; 3) pilot ratings of motion utility and maximum load factor obtained in an overbanked upset recovery; and 4) pilot ratings of motion utility and pedal input reaction time in the engine-out-on-takeoff task. Since the motion condition revealed statistical differences on objective measures in all the tasks, even with some in the direction not predicted, trainers should be cautious not to oversimplify the effects of platform motion. Evidence suggests that the new objective motion criteria may offer valid standardization benefits, as instances arose when the higher-fidelity hexapod motion, as predicted by the criteria, provided better cues in training than the lower-fidelity hexapod motion.
