AE3612 Flight Training Flight Simulation Laboratory Syllabus:

AE3612 Flight Training Flight Simulation Laboratory Syllabus – Anna University Regulation 2021

COURSE OBJECTIVES:

Of this course are
01. To make students learn the steps involved in CG determination.
02. To introduce the methods of calibrating various flight instruments.
03. To impart practical knowledge to students on determining various performance parameters.
04. To find the neutral points and maneuver points in an aircraft.
05. To impart practical knowledge to students about different modes of stability such as Dutch roll, phugoid motion etc.

• The experiments will be conducted by the students during the flight training programme at IIT- Kanpur or similar place and evaluation is also done by the faculty of IIT-Kanpur.
Otherwise the experiments can also be done using Flight simulator.
