TRU Simulation’s Veris virtual reality (VR) full-motion flight simulator has received FAA level-7 flight training device qualification. The Bell Training Academy (BTA) in Hurst, Texas, is the launch customer for the Veris simulator, which replicates the Bell 505 helicopter.

With a six-degrees-of-freedom motion base, the Veris simulator hosts the flight data and RealFeel digital electronic control loading system that TRU uses in its level-D simulators. The motion system enables the Veris simulator to “produce accurate flight cues and vibrations,” according to TRU.
