Abstract
Ground-based flight simulation can be a vital tool in the assessment of h andling qualities. The strengths and weaknesses of ground-based flight simulators are well documented and understood, but the effects of individual simulator characteristics on handling qualities are not. This study investigated the effects of simulator motion on handling qualities and to a limited extent, pilot behavior and adaptation/learning effects. An experiment was conducted on the motion simulator at the University of Toronto. A lateral tracking task was selected. Three qualified test pilots part icipated in the evaluation trials. The experiment variables included lateral aircraft dynamics, simulator motion washout filter coefficients and disturbance intensities. Four sets of aircraft dynamics were tested under three different simulator motion co nfigurations. These motion configurations were, a) fixed -base, b) with low motion washout levels, and c) with high washout levels. The results indicated that low motion washout levels were preferred to fixed -base, while fixed -base was preferred to high le vels of motion washout. Some insight into pilot behavior and learning effects was also gained. The results suggested that motion caused pilots to alter their control strategy and flying technique for the same aircraft dynamics.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
