Will Be Installed On Mexico-Based A320 Flight Simulators For Airbus
As part of a contract with Lockheed Martin Commercial Flight Training, Rockwell Collins’ integrated visual systems will be featured on two Airbus A320 full flight simulators that will be based at Airbus’s new training centers in Mexico City, Mexico.
“Our integrated visual systems are proven in the most challenging training exercises, which is especially valuable for airlines whose routes take them to some of the busiest and most difficult airports in the region,” said LeAnn Ridgeway, vice president, Simulation and Training Solutions for Rockwell Collins. “In addition, our visual system solution delivers a significant reduction in life-cycle cost. This aligns perfectly with the ‘Training by Airbus’ strategy to ensure service and support throughout the operational life of an airline’s Airbus fleet.”
Rockwell Collins’ integrated visual system is available for both commercial and military training platforms and features the following to enhance flight training programs:
Image generation systems that exceed all regulatory requirements
Long-life, laser-illuminated projector technology that provides superior image quality, especially for nighttime and low-visibility representations needed to meet training requirements
Whole Earth environment with high-resolution, geo-typical imagery with an expansive library of certified airport models to create high-fidelity realism.
Rockwell Collins says its open, scalable-architecture integrated visual system saves operators cost by minimizing hardware replacement over the life of the system.
