Visionary Training Resources (VTR) is a game changer in the aviation industry. Our virtual reality platform allows pilots to learn flows and procedures, normal and non-normal checklists in an immersive, 3-D environment. Pilots learn faster and retain more knowledge than with traditional training.  Our 3D virtual flight deck environment helps build muscle memory from day one, optimizing the time spent in simulators. Our platform was built by pilots for pilots and allows them to train from anywhere.  Better, faster, stronger pilots. It’s not science fiction. It’s VR training.
