FlightSafety International (Booth C8524) announced in early September that it is building a new Citation XLS+ full flight simulator, which will enter service in April 2016 at the company’s learning center in Columbus, Ohio. Thanks to the simulator’s Vital 1100 visual system, pilots will be able to enjoy “highly detailed imagery, vastly improved scene content and exceptional environmental effects,” according to FlightSafety. The company plans to obtain FAA level D qualification first, then by other regulatory authorities, depending on customer needs.
The Columbus learning center also features training for the Citation Sovereign and X, Challenger 350, Global 5000/6000, Falcon 2000/2000EX and G200.
