TRU Simulation + Training's CRJ 900 FFS Earns Qualifications

TRU Simulation + Training Inc's Bombardier CRJ 900 FFS X™ full flight simulator has successfully been installed at China Express Airline’s training center in Chongqing, People's Republic of China and has received Level D qualifications from the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC).

The FFS X simulator features an electrical 60-inch motion system, TRU's unique front projected collimated visual display, and Rockwell Collins' EP8000 image generator. With this new FFS now installed, the airline will adopt the Train@Home model that is successfully being used by airlines worldwide and is providing savings on the cost of their pilot training operations.

“We are delighted that China Express Airlines has placed their trust in TRU to provide this high-fidelity training solution which will not only provide a significant cost saving to this fast-growing regional airline, but also simplify their training process,” commented George Karam, vice president and general manager of TRU’s Air Transport Simulation division. “In parallel, we continue to build our customer support infrastructure in China as we aim to service our customers over the life of our simulators.”
