Undergraduate pilot training: Visual discrimination pretraining for landing task.

Aircrew training devices: Fidelity features.

“…Differences between ATD-trained and air-only trained groups washed out later during inflight training. Somewhat opposed to this "early training benefit" argument is the view of Edwards, Weyer and Smith (1978) who found no positive transfer and some evidence of negative transfer for visual pre-training of overhead landing pattern turns.…”

“…The second study which showed no transfer for approach and landing used visual precraining only, rather than an interactive flight siritlator (Edwards, Weyer and Smith, 1978).…”
