Abstract: Despite the ongoing disputes about the need to use motion systems in flight simulators, the development of this component of simulators has been ongoing since the beginning of aviation. The aim of the article is to discuss the importance of the motion system in the simulation of motion stimuli affecting the aircraft pilot. Selected motion systems of flight simulators and reasons for using these systems are described. The benefits of the use of motion stimuli in flight simulators are discussed and possible directions of development of the motion system are presented.
