Eight subjects were instructed to \"drive\" the simulator under three levels of simulated preprogrammed motion picture display (MPDS) and the standard computer generated display (CGDS). Motion and no motion conditions were instituted at each level of display. A 6-minute data run was obtained for each possible combination of display and motion condition and for each subject.
