Assessing skills level of flying cadets

The paper presents an analysis of works attempting verification of the adequacy of both simulation and simulators themselves. However, these attempts are limited to determining the fact of adequacy or inadequacy of the systems being checked, which cannot be used to identify the skills acquired when using them in accordance with the input generalized classification. The adequacy itself is a concomitant sign of inadequate use of simulators. However, since the established reference base for assessing the adequacy of simulators does not make it possible to present it in the form of the indicator of the concomitant sign of inadequacy of use of simulators, the task of prime importance is to determine its quantitative form that would make it possible to eliminate the disparity of proficiency assessing. A system of assessing flying cadets’ skills level is proposed in the paper. Some propositions concerning the assessment of probabilistic levels of cadets’ proficiency are discussed. A five-mark grading system with pluses and minuses (12-mark system) for assessing the level of flying cadets’ proficiency is proposed in the paper. The system allows increasing the accuracy of flight skills identifying.
