Leenn063--美空军F-15型机飞行员停飞期间使用模拟机进行 ...

Good, But Not the Same: F-15 pilots around the Air Force no doubt are spending more time in simulator training as the A-D model stand-down continues and that is not necessarily an easy matter. At Kadena AB, Japan on the island of Okinawa, for instance, the 18th Operations Support Squadron, working with Boeing employees who support the simulator training, had to increase its ops tempo to provide more training hours for pilots. "All the contractors have leaned forward to help," says Maj. Michael Thomas, an 18th OSS flight commander, adding that they are "all prior F-15 pilots." The extra sim time helps, but as Capt. Matthew French, a 67th Fighter Squadron pilot, says, "As good as they are, the simulators can't fully replace or replicate actually flying the aircraft." Air Force officials predict it will take at least six months to get F-15 pilots recertified once Air Combat Command lifts the grounding order. (USAF report by SSgt. Christopher Marasky)
美空军F-15型机飞行员停飞期间使用模拟机进行训练

    12月17日美“空军杂志”网站：由于所有F-15A/B/C/D型战斗机持续停飞，美空军积极采用模拟机对停飞飞行员进行训练以维持飞行员的作战能力。目前，驻冲绳嘉手纳基地的第18作战支援中队正积极配合波音公司工程技术人员对模拟机进行维护，以增加F-15型机飞行员停飞期间的训练次数和强度。美空军官员预测此次停飞至少要持续六个月。Good, But Not the Same: F-15 pilots around the Air Force no doubt are spending more time in simulator training as the A-D model stand-down continues and that is not necessarily an easy matter.
