Extract

The relevance of this subject to the theme of today’s discussions lies in the fact that the universities play an important part in aerospace research and that significant research in the field of flight simulation can easily lead to the requirement for rather costly equipment which universities usually find difficult to obtain. This may well have been one of the major stumbling blocks preventing the universities from taking a more active part in flight simulation. The outsider may perhaps wonder why it seems to have been possible in the past to avoid some of these difficulties in the Netherlands.
