The Finnish helicopter flight training provider announced today they have selected TRU Simulation + Training, to deliver five Level D Full Flight Simulators representing Airbus Helicopters H125, H145, AgustaWestland AW169 and AW189. The fifth FFS will be decided in the coming months in response to market conditions. In addition, Coptersafety will follow the possibility of converting the H145 simulator to be H135/H145 compatible in the future. All Full Flight Simulators will be certified to EASA/FAA Level D.
“With current investment we want to take the next step in improving helicopter operators’ safety performance by offering our mission-specific simulator training for a wider range of helicopter types. At Coptersafety we strongly believe in simulator based training, it’s our core business and that’s why we want to make this significant investment in the helicopter pilot training domain”, says Coptersafety’s CEO Mikko Dahlman.
In order to house all the new simulators a new training facility will be build at Helsinki Airport.
