'''Acceleration onset cueing''' is a term for the motion cueing principle used by a [[flight simulator|simulator]] motion platform.
Motion platforms used in "Level D" [[Full flight simulator]]s (FFS) and equivalent military simulators have six jacks that can move the replica cockpit that is mounted on the platform in any of the six degrees of freedom (6-DoF) that can be experienced by any body free to move in space. These are the three rotations Pitch, Roll and Yaw, and three linear movements Heave (up and down), Sway (side to side) and Surge (fore and aft).

Acceleration onset cueing works in three phases:
