NBAA 2007: Adam A500 Virtual Flight Deck/Virtual Procedure Trainer Intro'd

Aerosim Technologies is launching their Virtual Flight Deck (VFD TM) and Virtual Procedure Trainer (VPT TM) for the Adam A500 at the 2007 NBAA Conference in Atlanta, Georgia. Both trainers will be on display in the Adam Aircraft booth #4933.

David Thompson, Adam Aircraft Director of Pilot Training comments, "Adam Aircraft is dedicated to providing the highest quality training in the world that is convenient and accessible to our customers. The Aerosim Virtual Flight Deck is vital to this effort. The VFD will allow our customers to become intimate with the systems of their aircraft without taking time away from their day-to-day lives."

The Adam A500 marks Aerosim's move to general aviation aircraft with the Virtual Procedure Trainer. It joins a long list of VPT devices already developed for wide range of commercial aircraft from Boeing, Airbus, Bombardier, Embraer and others. Aerosim Director of Sales, Joe Hartmann says, "We are very excited to bring our proven training technology to the general aviation market." He continues, noting, "Our ability to provide a full range of training devices - including distance learning capabilities - makes us very well suited to this market."

The VPT utilizes simulation to actively engage students in the learning process. For the Adam A500 configuration, four touch panel screens replicate the cockpit and allow students to view and manipulate all panels, controls, indicators and displays therein. The VPT allows real-time interaction with every aircraft system in a structured training environment or in complete free-play mode. Theory, practice, technical details, operational issues and human factors are brought together in a realistic environment.
