Swiss-based simulation specialist Elite is now offering a helicopter flight-training device (FTD). Elite exhibited the S623, based on the Eurocopter AS 350, for the first time at the Heli Trade show in Geneva.

Both IFR and VFR training are possible on the S623, which can be adapted for other helicopters, such as the Bell 206 or the AS 355. A fully enclosed cockpit features dual controls, dual pilot instrument panels and cyclic layout. It offers full autopilot capability, with a flight director and VOR and GPS, Elite said. Optional visual packages are available up to 220 degrees. The Elite S623 can be customized for virtual helipads, oil-rig environment or external loads.
