Mechtronix Goes To China

Ascent FFS XTM Meets CAAC Level D Standards for FFS

On August 14th, the Ascent FFS XTM Boeing 737-800 Full Flight Simulator received Level D certification by the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC), conforming to the requirements of GB/T 15025-94 flight simulator standards of the People's Republic of China.

This announcement was made following a speech by Jean Lapierre, Canada's Minister of Transport, launching the Canada-China Aviation Symposium in Beijing on September 1st.

Mechtronix says it's the first Ascent FFS XTM to receive CAAC approval and meet the highest level of fidelity for Full Flight Simulators. The Ascent FFS XTM is installed at one of the world's largest pilot training facilities -- the Flight Simulator Training Center of Civil Aviation Flight University of China (CAFUC) in Guanghan, Sichuan Province, People's Republic of China.

In compliance with the respective regulations of China and Canada, it can be noted that the FFS was certified Level D earlier this year by Transport Canada as well. Furthermore, this device was also manufactured to Level D standards as defined in the FAA AC-120-40C.

"This achievement further confirms that Mechtronix Systems is offering the highest quality flight simulation devices and is delivering the most advanced flight training technology available," said Executive Vice President Li Shuwen of CAFUC. "We will work with Mechtronix in order to continue providing the best flight training solutions for our pilots."

"Mechtronix is excited to have obtained CAAC certification for a device designed and manufactured in compliance with the standards of civil aviation in China," said Xavier Herv�, President of Mechtronix Systems. "This certification is a great accomplishment for us. We look forward to continue working with CAFUC and the growing number of airlines of China."
