AXIS Flight Simulation has achieved FAA Level D qualification for a Bombardier Challenger CL350 full-flight simulator (FFS) developed for Vista America, an operating partner of Vista. The simulator was unveiled at Vista America’s headquarters in Columbus, Ohio. This is AXIS’s first Level D CL350 FFS in the U.S. and the company’s third training device in the country, with two dedicated to business jet training.
The FFS features a Van Halteren motion system and RSi XT6 visual system with a 200x45 field of view, along with a Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 Advanced rehosted avionics system. Optional features include Controller–Pilot Data Link Communications (CPDLC), an Electronic Checklist (ECL), and steep approach capability. It is certified for Localiser Performance with Vertical guidance (LPV), Required Navigation Performance (RNP), and Runway Awareness and Advisory System/Smart Runway (RAAS/SR).
David Stanley, President of Vista America, says: “Having a Bombardier Challenger CL350 FFS at our Vista America headquarters allows us to conduct comprehensive in-house pilot training, giving us complete control over curriculum quality, and performance standards. Operating up to 16 hours a day, seven days a week, the simulator supports every stage of pilot development and brings new agility and consistency to our training ecosystem."
Christian Theuermann, Executive Board Member at AXIS, says: “Qualifying our first Bombardier CL350 simulator in the United States is a significant milestone for AXIS. Not only does this mark our third FFS installation in the country, but it also reflects our ability to deliver highly specialised training devices tailored to the needs of global operators.”
AIXS will be at The European Aviation Training Summit (EATS) in Cascais, Portugal, from 5- 6 November at booth 228 to share more about their training solutions.
