World Aviation Training Summit (WATS), April 29th – May 2nd
Join us at Rosen Shingle Creek Resort (booth #411) as we debut our virtual reality (VR) flight simulation training device (FSTD) at WATS for the first time.
We look forward to exhibiting our first-of-its-kind VR Airbus H125 FSTD, the first and only VR FSTD qualified by one of the world's leading aviation authorities. Visit us at booth 411 to experience the features firsthand, including:
- A full-scale replica cockpit and 360-degree 3D view for precise visual cues inside and outside the aircraft.
- A six-degrees-of-freedom motion platform system replicating haptic sensations, including sling loads, runway texture, and force feedback from flight controls.
- A proprietary full-body Pose Tracking System, which allows the pilot to see all body movements in real-time in a VR environment and intuitively interact with knobs, switches, and touch screens of the Garmin GTN650 and G500H TXi suite.
- A virtual tablet enables pilots to read checklists, use their Electronic Flight Bag, and work with common navigation software.
From basic flight training up to demanding scenario-based mission training, we offer solutions that meet any training requirements. Whether primarily operating an H125 or a different type of helicopter, we would like to discuss your needs and collaborate on solutions. Be sure to book a demo early as our past events have garnered long waitlists.
We look forward to seeing you at booth #411!

Virtual Reality in Motion: A New Technology for More Realistic Simulator Training
Loft Dynamics' EASA-qualified VR training devices serve as gateways to realistic simulation in pilot training. These professional Flight Simulation Training Devices (FSTDs) enable credible training and checking, enhancing flight safety, and reducing training costs while preserving the environment. They facilitate the development of pilot competencies such as workload management, procedural execution, leadership qualities, problem-solving, and decision-making skills. Through lifelike flight sessions and scenario-based training, these devices address the specific needs of trainees, promoting mastery of basic skills, emergency procedures, and the utilization of technologies like evidence-based training (EBT).
Balancing simulator use with actual flight time leads to more efficient training and improved flight safety. Loft Dynamics' VR training devices offer a 3D high-resolution 360° panoramic view with realistic sun effects, including shadows and accurate night representation. The visual perception matches reality by adjusting the perspective when pilots move the head, a crucial feature for helicopter operations close to the ground.
Thanks to the highly dynamic motion system, pilots can feel every movement of the helicopter, enabling realistic training for maneuvers such as full-touchdown autorotation, external sling load and slope operations. These devices allow pilots to learn in the simulator and seamlessly transfer their skills to real helicopter operation without adaptation.
