Operations manual: Vertical Motion Simulator (VMS) S.08

Abstract

The Ames Research Center Vertical Motion Simulator (VMS) is described in terms useful to the researcher who intends to use it. A description of the VMS and its performance are presented together with the administrative policies governing its operation. The management controls over its use are detailed, including data requirements, user responsibilities, and scheduling procedures. This information is given in a form that should facilitate communication with the NASA operations group during initial simulator use.
