MAINTENANCE TRAINING

VSAT recognized the requirements analysis process, originally developed for DMO, could be applied to maintenance training.   In  September 2004 VSAT was awarded a SBIR enhancement to determine, by application and evaluation, that the technology currently being developed by the SBIR can be applied to support the much needed requirement to evaluate maintenance trainers and to define trainer fidelity requirements for new maintenance training systems.

Computer-driven maintenance training devices, including simulated aircraft maintenance trainers, have been developed in recent years to provide an alternative to traditional 2-D and 3-D representation hardware trainers or use of the aircraft. The F-16 Modular Simulated Aircraft Maintenance Trainer (MSAMT) is the latest in the development of such trainers. VSAT will develop a process for evaluating the MSAMT training system and an interactive database system similar to the MTAD to store and analyze evaluation data.  The evaluation process will support timely decision-making and acquisition of future maintenance training systems.  The VSAT team will also evaluate human-computer interface (HCI) issues during the F-16 MSAMT evaluation, and develop a reusable set of HCI criteria that could be used across such modular computer-intensive maintenance trainers
