Instrument flying, as its name implies, depends entirely upon instrument indications to maintain normal flight positions and upon radio indications for navigation. The Type D4 trainer provided an effective, economical and safe means of pilot training under instrument conditions.<\/p>\n<p>The complete equipment embodies the necessary controls, switches, instruments, and mechanisms to reproduce realistically all the major flight characteristics and instruments of the then (the early 1950s) advanced training type aircraft. The cockpit and used with controls and instruments identical in appearance and function with the then standard aircraft instruments. Also, the \u201cfeel\u201d of flying is reproduced so realistically that if the pilot feels at ease in the training aircraft, he will likewise feel at ease in the trainer.<\/p>\n<p>The trainer was made of a system of pumps, valves and bellows which responded to the pilot\u2019s controls. The inventor used his extensive knowledge in organ manufacturing to connect a vacuum operated motor to the trainer and mount it on a pedestal giving the pilot a range of motion. A student pilot could \u2018pilot\u2019 the console to pitch, dive, roll and climb. In training, he relied on the instruments in the cockpit to \u2018fly\u2019 the device. The instrument readings in the cockpit are repeated to an instructor\u2019s console outside and used to guide the student. Another important feature is that the actual flight path the student navigates was \u2018drawn\u2019 on a map by a mechanical apparatus.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Link Trainer D4<\/strong> was produced by <strong>Air Trainers Ltd of Aylesbury <\/strong>who manufactured several versions under licence from the US company, Link Aviation Devices Inc, founded and headed by Edwin Link.<\/p>\n<h5><span style=\"color: #993300;\">Taken from information posted on the RAF.MOD.UK web site.<\/span><\/h5>\n<input class=\"fooboxshare_post_id\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"1149\"\/>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Update from the Flight Simulators (part I) &#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.
