AS 343 - T-6 Virtual Reality Flight Simulation I


Lecture Hours: 0.5
Lab Hours: 0.5
Credit Hours: 1

This course is designed to introduce U.S. Air Force or Navy students to the Undergraduate Pilot Training (UPT) environment flying the T-6A/B Texan. The course is flight-centric, and thus, will not focus on ground operations or the tactile mechanic of setting up the cockpit and flight instruments. Rather, it will focus on flight maneuvers as described in the AETCMAN 11-248 T-6 Primary Flying such as the takeoff, landing, closed pattern, overhead pattern, radio calls and aerobatics. Students that complete this course will be more prepared to attend UPT because they will possess greater knowledge of the flight characteristics and parameters of the T-6. There is no prerequisite for cadets to have flight experience or be selected for a flying related career field to attend this course. Instructors will tailor course requirements to experience level of the cadet. Sections 01/02 are reserved for Air Force cadets and Sections 03/04 are reserved for USN/Marine Corps cadets.
