A low-cost and high-fidelity flight simulation training device (FSTD) has been developed for the purpose of research and education. With inexpensive and easy obtained materials, the FSTD duplicates a realistic cockpit and relevant hardware of the airplane Beech 1900C. The computational platform is a PC-based cluster system. The commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) software of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 is the computational kernel of the simulation system. Two middleware, named as FSUIPC and WideFS, are used for data interchange between cluster computers. An instructor workstation is included in this system to manage the mission of the flight simulation. USB 2.0 interface is also adopted for connecting the cockpit hardware and the hardware control computer (HCC).
