Helsinki, Finland-based Coptersafety’s Part 142 pilot training programs now enable FAA-certificated pilots to train in the company’s Airbus H145D2, CAE-built Leonardo AW139, and TRU-built AW139 level-D-qualified simulators. In addition to the H145 and AW139 simulators, Coptersafety offers training in its H125 and AW169 simulators. Pilots can train for type ratings, get initial and recurrent training, and complete airline transport pilot certificate programs.

According to company chief theoretical knowledge instructor Matt Presnal, Coptersafety “is the first and only independent international Part 142 helicopter simulator training center in Northern Europe. We are proud that our H145D2 simulator is the first one qualified by the FAA outside of the United States, as well as the first H145D2 qualified for [night vision goggle (NVG)] training tasks outside of the United States.”
