Reiser Simulation and Training (RST) has been awarded a contract from Swiss Air-Rescue (Rega) for the provision of a multi-platform Level D helicopter full flight simulator (FFS), to include a genuine AW 169-FIPS fully customized to Rega requirements. The project marks the beginning of a fruitful cooperation between RST and Leonardo Helicopters and will enable Rega to have a flexible and multiplatform training solution.
"We’re excited to contribute also to the development and provision of the training capabilities that Rega needs to maximize the performance and safety benefits introducing the AW169-FIPS in their fleet to serve their community with advanced, all-weather rescue capabilities. We look forward to starting working at this major project with Rega and RST, " states Paolo Petrosso, Leonardo VP Simulation & Training Services.
Through RST's roll-on/roll-off capabilities of the FFS, the training device may adapt to the fleet composition of Rega by exchanging the functional cockpit. Focusing on future needs is of the utmost importance to Rega, particularly regarding the proposed expansion of its helicopter fleet. The demand exists: Rega helicopters flew more than 13,000 rescue missions in 2020 – more than ever before.
