Nowadays, simulators are widely used both in the world of military and civil aviation, as it helps to control risks in a high performance environment.
Flight simulators are designed to accommodate beginners through to the most advanced pilots. For more experienced pilots, they are a great way to practice emergency procedures or unusual flight scenarios safely.
Flight simulator training is a valuable tool that students can utilize to build flight time, improve technique, and learn valuable lessons. The capabilities of the equipment go beyond the training of air traffic controllers. These devices can be used for the aeronautical training of operating flight engineers, and for the testing and trial operation of modified or newly designed on-board systems.
Many student pilots are surprised to learn that they can add hours to their flight time without ever leaving the ground. Although it does not count as pilot in command time, flight simulator training is valuable to new as well as veteran pilots. Sim time counts as training time even when it does not contribute to a pilot’s total time. Technological advances means that pilots can now work toward private certificates and even gain currency while working in a simulator.
Benefits:
- You Can “Fly” in Any Weather
- You Can Try That Again
- Reduced Cost
- Safe Environment to Rehearse Emergency Procedures
The equipment is suitable for pilot training, flight operations training of flight engineers, test and trial of on-board systems operations after altered and new setup.
Several categories of equipment supporting state-of-the-art training are known, the diversity of the categories being shown by the fact that there is equipment that only serves to familiarize the user with the interior design of the cabin and being able to start an ‘aircraft’, besides there are multi-pilot aircraft supporting their activities.
