The Aviation Safety Studio is a space dedicated to flight simulation for teaching concepts such as aviation safety, aircraft performance, aircraft design, and flight stability and control. It's equipped with two aircraft flight simulators and a large projection screen with three projectors which can be used to show a panoramic view from the cockpit of either flight simulator. The simulators are equipped with realistic aircraft controls and high-end computer graphics to provide realistic flight experiences.
Real-time date from the simulations can be extracted to other programs to enable testing of closed-loop controller tests and collection of simulated flight test data. Most airports and regions, aircraft types, seasons, times of day and weather patterns can be simulated. This facility is used for undergraduate classes including virtual flight laboratories in ZEIT2502 Fundamentals of Flight and ZEIT3505 Flight Dynamics and Control.
