Usually a human pilot controls aircraft, largely observing the movement of visual scene out of the window as a visual cue. In the case of windowless cockpit, a pilot observes synthetic image derived from the cameras and sensors that is projected on the display. If the angular movement of outside view is modified and a pilot watches, how are controllability and task performance influenced? In this study, we investigated the effect of these virtual visual cues in flight path task using fixed-based flight simulator. The results show that, the pilot's handling is improved dramatically and the task performance is degraded very small or same as non-modified. These results indicate that flying quality of aircraft may be improved by modifying the visual cue for a pilot without repairing the flight characteristics of aircraft.
