European Heli Centre (EHS) has begun construction of its new helicopter training facility at Lelystad Airport, the Netherlands. Opening is scheduled for the first quarter of 2027.

A central element of the site will be the Reiser-built full-flight simulator, supporting students on the Airbus Helicopters H135 and H145. An agreement for this training aid was signed in March, preceding a joint project kick-off meeting at Reiser’s Bavarian headquarters in June. “We are proud to see this project advancing exactly as planned,” said Reiser simulation and training CEO Johannes Hain.
