Visitors at Oshkosh will have the opportunity to learn about Redbird Flight's mixed-reality trainer.

The Aerospace Center for Excellence (ACE) in Lakeland, Florida, will be the first aviation education organization to install Redbird Flight’s new mixed-reality flight training platform. Redbird unveiled a proof of concept of the platform at EAA AirVenture in 2022 and this year is debuting the next-generation trainer at the 2024 edition in Oshkosh, Wisconsin.

Combining a virtual reality headset with proprietary software, the mixed-reality platform will serve as a foundation for future add-ons to new and existing Redbird training devices, the company said.
