The NLR National Simulation Facility (NSF) in one of the few high quality research full mission flight simulators intended to support both aircraft industry and operators for investigations with the full operational envelope of an aircraft. The NSF has been an is used in a number of simulator experiments where a high degree of simulator fidelity is required in combination with the need for easy reconfiguring for a specific aircraft type or conditions where the aircraft operated in. Three simulator experiments performed in 1996 are described showing the various possibilities; a handling qualities experiment for the SAAB JAS-30 Gripen, a Speech recognition study with the F-16 MLU and a simulator requirements study with an Aermacchi MB/339C. Also, some lessons learned during the deveopment of the NSF and the subsequent operational period, are presented.
