The article presents flight simulation training devices used for the training of students at Dęblin Air Force University from the early 60s until the present time. It includes information concerning the scope of the use of training devices in the teaching process as well as training itself of the university flying personnel. It also presents the development of flight simulation based on changes in the devices facilitating flight training, from training devices to the Integrated Training System. The use of flight simulators for the training of pilots is becoming an increasingly more important element of this training. More and more advanced flight simulators allow the implementation of the majority of flight procedures.

The use of computers for cue generation and the safety inherent in simulators permits new “tasks” which are impossible in real flight. We are investigating the potential efficacy of using a particularly striking non-standard task, namely flying at zero-altitude and even below ground. Our hypothesis was that increased experience with optically violent displays during training would improve performance during the testing phase of maintaining low, above ground flight. In the training phase half of the subjects maintained zero altitude while the other half flew as low as possible without crashing. Contrary to our hypothesis the low-trained subjects had a lower standard deviation and mean altitude than the zero-trained subjects in testing. Although our hypothesis was not supported, the concept of exploring novel ways of using flight simulators deserves further attention.
