St. Louis Facility Offers Highest Level Of Simulator
Training
FlightSafety International announced last week that the
company’s Embraer 170/190 interchangeable flight simulator
located at the Learning Center in St. Louis Missouri, has been
qualified to Level D by the FAA. “The FAA’s Level D
qualification of our Embraer 170/190 interchangeable simulator
demonstrates FlightSafety’s commitment to provide Embraer
aircraft operators with flexible and efficient training programs
and our ability to design and manufacture advanced technology
training devices that qualify to the highest standards,” said
Bruce Whitman, President & CEO.
The simulator is equipped with the company’s industry
leading electric motion and control loading technology and advanced
VITAL visual system. FlightSafety provides training for Embraer
aircraft at nine locations using a fleet of 24 full flight
simulators and other advanced training devices. This includes the
recent addition of Amsterdam, Curitiba in Brazil, Singapore and
Zurich.
These additional locations have increased training and simulator
availability and provide Embraer aircraft operators with more
scheduling flexibility. Embraer selected FlightSafety earlier this
year as the factory authorized training provider for the E-Jets
family of commercial jets, as well as the Lineage 1000 and Legacy
600 executive jets.
FlightSafety and Embraer continue to develop new training
programs, update existing courses, and determine the timing and
location of additional flight simulators and other training
equipment needed to support Embraer aircraft operators
worldwide.
