Helicopter flight training is now more realistic, thanks to Reiser Simulation and Training (RST) and its use of the DiSTI Corporation’s GL Studio. RST selected DiSTI’s GL Studio HMI software tool to develop the Avionic HMI for their H145 and H135 EASA Level D qualified Full Flight Simulators (FFS), Flight Training Devices, and Avionic Desktop Trainers.

The two companies have worked closely to ensure a smooth integration of GL Studio as part of their simulation framework. These full-flight simulators provide a high level of fidelity to ensure maximum training efficiency.
RST achieved its first qualification according to EASA CS-FSTD(H) Level D in January 2018, from the German Federal Aviation Office (LBA) and again from the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) in Norway in August 2018 for their H145 FFS. The newest RST Full Flight Simulator is equipped with an interchangeable H135/H145 cockpit. In addition, the FFS features a third crew member station, utilizing virtual reality technology to train crew coordination during hook operation simulation. Pilots can bring their own night vision goggles and thus enhance the realism of the mission. The helicopter simulator designed by RST features a 240 x 80-degree out-of-the-window view direct projection via high-resolution LED video projectors and an intuitive Instructor Operating Station (IOS).
Modern full-flight simulators allow pilots to maintain a high proficiency level by strengthening skills, reducing safety risks while providing a cost-effective way for pilots to practice both routine and rarely-used skills.
