In the “near future,” FlightSafety (Booth No. 5106) will be adding Pratt & Whitney Canada turboshaft engine training to centers in Curitiba, Brazil; Johannesburg, South Africa; Melbourne, Australia; and Beijing, China. The company currently offers training for the PT6B, PT6C, PT6T and PW206/207 at centers in Dallas/Fort Worth, Wichita, West Palm Beach, Montreal, Toronto, Paris Le Bourget and Singapore. Courses for the new 1,000-shp PW210 series will be introduced in the fourth quarter this year.
FlightSafety is here showing its Vital X simulator visual system, enhanced for more realism in helicopter training. “Visitors to FlightSafety’s exhibit at Heli-Expo will be able to view newly created high-resolution scenes developed specifically for EMS and offshore operators,” said George Ferito, director of rotorcraft business development. “We have also developed visual scenes for news gathering, law enforcement and other mission-specific training that will be available at our learning centers.”
