At I/ITSEC 2024, Moog Inc. invites attendees to pilot a CH-47Chinook at booth 649 via its flight training device, FTD, that brings motion control and virtual reality to immersive aviation training, exceeding regulatory agency requirements.
“We can tailor our platform to simulate other helicopters, aircraft, or ground vehicles,” said Noud van Bavel, global marketing manager for Simulation & Test at Moog. “This FTD offers a level of realism and fidelity that simply hasn’t been available with other training devices and opens up a world of possibilities for military and civilian organizations to improve safety, reduce the cost of training, and put people into the field faster with enhanced skills.”
Attendees can climb into the pilot’s seat of Moog’s fully working simulator, built on a Moog high-performance motion platform. They can then don a VR Headset and lift off from any Airbase. The simulator features:
• A full control loading solution with flight stick and mimicked CH-47 thrust lever with dynamic feedback, and adjustable pedals accurately representing everything a pilot feels in the real helicopter.
• A motion platform with 6 degrees of freedom.
Attendees and members of the media can book a VR experience in the Chinook simulator by choosing a day and time on Moog’s website.
New this year is the release of two major Moog motion systems, the E60 and P60, for organizations needing larger systems for Level D flight training centers.
The E60 updates Moog's previous electric motion systems, focusing on improved reliability and simplified maintenance to meet OEMs’ exacting requirements. The P60 pneumatic system features integrated pneumatics and enhanced power management, offering a 75 percent energy savings compared to traditional all-electric systems, according to the company. Stop by the booth at I/ITSEC to talk with the team at Moog and learn more.
