®Boeing 757-200 Flight Training

• Instructional design
• Audience
• Courselength
• System requirements
• Course outline

This flight training course, produced by Wicat, Boeing

Commercial Airplanes Group, and SAS, combines expertise in
CBT design, aircraft design and specifications, and practical
airline experience into a comprehensive program for transition,
upgrade, or refresher training on the Boeing 757 aircraft.
Wicat, in conjunction with Boeing Commercial Airplanes Group and SAS, has developed a
computer-based training (CBT) course to train flight crew in the operation of the Boeing 757-
series aircraft.

The course plays an integral, cost-effective role in flight crew training in the U.S. Federal
Aviation Association certification process. Wicat instructional designers and Boeing subject
matter experts conceived and executed a design philosophy that integrates with and fulfills
FAA Regulation 121 requi- rements while reducing expensive simulator time.

The Boeing 757 flight course focuses on the systems, controls, and operation of various
components of the 757-series aircraft. All major systems are covered with instruction and
practice designed to increase learner comprehension and retention. Many system modules,
such as those covering hydraulics, electrical, and fuel, allow operation in both normal and non-
normal modes, creating further in-depth knowledge and familiarity.

The course emphasizes thorough treatment of the flight management system (FMS). The
Boeing 757 course provides unmatched coverage of the full operation of the inertial reference
system (IRS), electronic flight instrumentation systems (EFIS), and flight management
computer (FMC).

WUS/RJ
Fidelity Flight Simulation
introduces the MOTUS/RJ, the first
affordable full motion Regional Jet
flight simulation device.

The MOTUS/RJ is specifically designed for the critical
transition from piston aircraft to the right seat of the
Regional Jet in a pilot's real time operating
environment. No other flight simulation device offers RJ
systems integration along with the proven MOTUS full
flight simulation capability. Along with Fidelity's six-axis
motion base and multi-screen RealVision external
display, the MOTUS/RJ is the ideal Regional Jet, CRM
and LOFT training device.
The Regional Jet is a challenging transition for
most pilots. Many struggle to adapt to the glass
cockpit, flight management systems and operating
speeds of the RJ, particularly at the high task loading
these aircraft demand. Only MOTUS, with its
affordable, all-electric
motion base, can so fully
immerse the pilot in the RJ
training environment.
The principal challenge is
training pilots to manage
all the new resources
available in a time critical
environment. Pilots can
learn in the MOTUS/RJ
how to manage various levels of automation, depending
on the situation, for effective flight management.
The MOTUS/RJ provides the necessary integration
between EFIS, Mode Control Panel and FMC to
promote a total understanding of aircraft automation.
Most experts agree there are two types of non-
normals. In the RJ, some non-
normals can be addressed by
a straightforward response to
emergency checklists. But
other non-normals demand far
higher cognitive and motor
skills, the type of responses
requiring training in higher
fidelity simulation devices. A
high task loading environment
requires motion cueing, and
only the MOTUS/RJ can
affordably deliver motion.
As with all MOTUS flight simulators, Fidelity Flig
Simulation offers the visual database, airports, navak
and approaches for the desired continent of operatior
Users can even add runway markings, ILS boundarie
and other airport signage for runway incursion trainin
and a level of authenticity unmatched anywhere at ar
price. And the MOTUS IFR training environment
permits flight in an almost limitless variety of ceilings,
visibilities, precipitation, turbulence and wind shear.

VOR Navigation part 1

< Previous. | Chapters .overview | Next >

INTRODUCTION

The very high frequency omni-directional radio range. What a mouthful! This is one instance
where acronyms are handy. All of that is condenses into VHF omni-range or VOR! If you need
a basic explanation of what a VOR or VORTAC is, please see the Navaids lesson on
VOR/VORTAC.

The VOR system was developed in the US in the late 1940s and adopted by the ICAO as the
standard short range radio navigation aid in 1960. It had several advantages over the existing
system of ADF/NDB, such as low interference from atmospheric conditions and no night
effect.

USAGE

The VOR is used for: orientation and position determination navigation by tracking to or from
a station as a holding fix as a non precision instrument approach

The main use is for following a specific course to or from a VOR. The VOR will indicate the
desired course and the deviation from that course. The VOR display is NOT heading
sensitive. The heading has nothing to do with the indication. More on this later.

In the VOR system, a ground station emits a signal in all directions. By convention, 360
different tracks, or radials, are used. Radials are always From the VOR and in 1° increments,
related to magnetic north. The normal accuracy of a VOR is ± 2° or better.

The range of a VOR is limited by power and line of sight. There are several classes of VORs.
For information concerning ranges, see the Navaid Service Volume lesson.

Most aeronautical charts show the VOR's position, frequency and ident, the three letter
identifier for the VOR in Morse Code. This information is also found in the AF/D. The Victor
Airways and Jet Routes both use the VOR system and the routes themselves are marked
with the appropriate radial of each VOR forming the route. You should be aware that these
course indications are in degrees magnetic. If you are plotting a course on a chart, you need
to convert the degrees true to degrees magnetic. To convert true to magnetic, you add or
subtract the magnetic variation for the area. An easy way to remember this is: "East is Least,
Add Whiskey" or "East is Least; West is Best". In other words, if variation is East, subtract it
from magnetic to get true and if it is west, add it.
