The combination of engineering and training simulations in the B-1B Engineering Research Simulator (ERS) for the USAF Strategic Air Command is described. It is shown how clear and mutual benefits are derived from integrating cockpit engineering and crew training simulations. It is suggested that the best method of integration is the development of a government-owned joint engineering/training simulator (E/TS) early in an aircraft program. An E/TS could prototype displays and controls and serve as a prototype for training devices. Engineering changes developed in the E/TS could be evaluated at the aircraft's main operating bases by qualified aircrews in the E/TS compatible trainers. An E/TS would help produce more reliable cockpit designs and reduce time and cost associated with development and software update of training simulators.
