Data are presented that show the effects of visual and motion cueing on pilot perfor¬mance during takeoffs with engine failures. Four groups of USAF pilots flew a simulated KC-135 using four different cueing systems. The most basic of these systems was of the instrument-only type. Visual scene simulation and/or motion simulation was added to produce the other systems. Learning curves, mean performance, and subjective data are examined. These data show that the addition of visual cueing results in significant improve¬ment in pilot performance, but the combined use of visual and motion cueing results in far better performance.
