Helicopter flight simulator specialist Loft Dynamics is moving into the eVTOL aircraft training sector with plans to develop equipment for Dufour Aerospace’s hybrid-electric Aero3 tilt-wing model. The system Loft announced on Friday will use the company’s virtual reality technology and is expected to be available in early 2025, at which point it can help Dufour complete the development of the aircraft.

“Our partnership with Dufour Aerospace represents a big stride forward in training a wide range of pilots at a time when operators need it most,” said Loft Dynamics founder and CEO, Fabi Riesen. “It also lays the groundwork for the eventual certification of our eVTOL simulator.”
