Frasca Visual Display System Options

Frasca simulators can be equipped with several different visual display systems. These can be tailored to different training requirements. Single channel systems provide a suitable field of view for IFR training while multi channel systems add capabilities for VFR training. These systems are available on all new Frasca simulators and can be added as upgrades to existing Frasca devices. 

 

Basic CRT Display system: This system uses a CRT video display placed above the control panel.
