Also Earns Level D Approval For G450/550 simulator
In this case, earning a "D" is a very good thing, indeed. CAE
recently achieved industry firsts with the receipt of Level D
certification -- the highest qualification for flight simulators --
for two CAE-built Dassault Falcon 7X full-flight simulators (FFSs)
located in CAE’s Burgess Hill training centre in the UK and
CAE’s North East Training Center (NETC) near Morristown,
NJ.
CAE also announced that a Gulfstream G450/550 full-flight
simulator located in the NETC had been certified to Level D.
"Receiving Level D certification for the world’s first
Falcon 7X simulators and for the Gulfstream G450/550 simulator
confirms that our customers are training on the highest quality
flight training equipment," said Jeff Roberts, CAE’s Group
President, Innovation and Civil Training and Services. "CAE has a
wealth of experience in developing simulators for new types of
aircraft and these latest achievements reinforce our position as
the leading provider of innovative simulation technology."
All three full-flight simulators were qualified by the US
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the Joint Aviation
Authorities (JAA), according to CAE.
The CAE Burgess Hill training centre offers Falcon 7X, Falcon
900EX EASy, and Falcon 2000EX EASy training programs, and also
houses Airbus A320, A340-600 and Boeing B747-400 full-flight
simulators for commercial aviation training. The NETC offers a
range of training programs for business jets, including training
for the Dassault Falcon 7X, Falcon 900EX EASy, Falcon 2000EX EASy,
Gulfstream IV, Sikorsky S-76, and Gulfstream G450/550 aircraft.
