Texas
FlightSafety International said Thursday it is developing Level
D sims for Bombardier Global 5000 Vision and Global Express XRS
Vision aircraft as well as Dassault Falcon 900LX.

The company says it will design a new full flight, Level
D-qualified simulator as well as other advanced training equipment
and courseware for the Global 5000 Vision and Global Express XRS
Vision aircraft with training to be located at the company's
Learning Center in Columbus, Ohio. The simulator will feature
FlightSafety’s electric motion and control loading technology
as well as the recently enhanced VITAL X visual system.
“We look forward to offering training for these new
Bombardier Global aircraft,” said Bruce Whitman, President
& CEO. “Many of our Customers who operate Bombardier
aircraft look forward to the high quality Global 5000 Vision and
Global Express XRS Vision training we will provide.”
The new Falcon 900LX simulator is scheduled to be shipped to
FlightSafety’s Learning Center in Dallas, Texas, in November
2011 and is expected to receive Level D qualification early in
2012.

“Building this new Falcon 900LX simulator demonstrates
FlightSafety’s commitment to provide our Customers with the
high quality training, advanced technology simulators, and
comprehensive courseware they require,” said Bruce Whitman,
President & CEO.
The simulator will be equipped with FlightSafety’s
industry-leading electric motion and control loading system.
Simulators equipped with this technology offer the highest level of
aircraft fidelity, enhanced performance, and increased availability
due to a reduction in maintenance requirements and increased
reliability. The simulators also offer environmental advantages
compared to previous-generation devices, as they produce less heat,
lower levels of ambient noise and provide a safer environment due
to the elimination of the risks often associated with hydraulic
fluids, as well as our dependency on petroleum products.
