H125 Full-Flight Simulator Qualified by Finnish Regulatory Authority

Helsinki, Finland October 17, 2019

US – German cooperation between TRU Simulation + Training and Reiser Simulation and Training successfully achieves EASA Level D qualification for the H125 Full-Flight Simulator at Coptersafety in Helsinki, Finland.

For this Training Academy Full-Flight Simulator, Reiser Simulation and Training GmbH, Berg/Germany provided their replicated H125 helicopter cockpit, flight model and Avionique Nouvelle® avionics software as well as their replicated H145 helicopter cockpit, flight model and Helionix® avionics software, thus contributing to the successful qualification of TRU’s latest FullFlight Simulator.

Achieving Level D qualification – the highest possible certification for a Full-Flight Simulator – emphasizes Reiser’s commitment on providing advanced solutions for pilot training. TRU’s Odyssey(TM) H® mothership together with Reiser’s H125 cockpit module, flight dynamics and avionics software make it the world’s newest H125 helicopter simulator to receive Level D certification, being built on Reiser’s own flight data and replicated hardware.

Reiser’ CEO Dr. Roman Sperl highlights the fruitful US-German cooperation in this program.

“This certification of the H125 project is an example of a very successful cooperation between two world-class simulator companies, one in the US the other in Germany, the operator, Coptersafety, and the Finnish Regulatory Authority”, said Dr. Roman Sperl, CEO Reiser Simulation and Training GmbH, “testament to what can be achieved if organizations are committed to excellence”.
