Type Ratings
Save costs, emissions, and time by leveraging a simulator to obtain a type rating.
Advantages
Our VR motion simulators provide targeted training alongside the actual helicopter, which can help reduce the cost of obtaining a type rating. Companies can save time and reduce errors associated with manual shift scheduling, while improving employee satisfaction and productivity.
A total of 6 hours is required for the initial type rating, with a minimum of 4 hours in the helicopter and 2 hours in the simulator.
A total of 4 hours is required for an additional type rating, with a minimum of 1 hour in the helicopter and 3 hours in the simulator.
Benefits
The benefits of using a simulator include:
- The ability to train normal and emergency procedures in both the real helicopter and the VR simulator.
- Realistic training for Full-Down Autorotations, engine restarts, tail rotor shaft breakage, and more in the VR simulator
- Cost-effective training that combines the use of the VR simulator with the real helicopter
