For this purpose, a simulation platform developed at LARCASE was used to generate the aircraft longitudinal state space matrices {A, B} for a wide range of operating conditions. This simulation platform was developed and validated from data obtained from a Level D Research Aircraft Flight Simulator (RAFS) designed and manufactured by CAE Inc. According to the Federal Administration Aviation (FAA, AC 120-40B), the level D is the highest certification level for the flight dynamics of an aircraft. The data collected from the simulation platform was then restructured into a comprehensive database for the neural network training process. In this study, the structure of the neural network was determined by performing several analyses in order to find the optimal number of layers and neurons, as well as the combination of activation and learning functions, that provide the best prediction results. The validation of the neural network model was performed in two steps. First, analysis was performed by comparing the longitudinal matrix {A, B} predicted by the neural network with the matrix obtained from the simulation platform. Then, a second analysis was performed by comparing the aircraft dynamics parameters (pitch angle, normal acceleration and time variations) for two modes - the short period and the phugoid obtained using neural network versus the simulation platform. The results showed that the proposed model provides very accurate predictions of longitudinal 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
