Merlin complete installation of new simulation suite at the United States Air Force Academy, Colorado
Merlin Flight Simulation Group have supplied the USAFA with a new simulation suite consisting of two MP500-1's and two of their latest MP525 simulators.
Lt. Col. Judson Babcock, Aeronautics Laboratory Director, said:-
"The Department of Aeronautics will incorporate the engineering flight simulators into many aeronautical engineering courses such as Aircraft Stability & Control, Aircraft Feedback Control, and Aircraft Design. The simulators will allow cadets to experience the effects of aircraft design choices in real-time and full-motion. The simulators will also be incorporated into on-going and new research projects to investigate new UAV concepts and modifications to existing aircraft."
