Flight Testing: The FRASCA Advantage

Monday, 01 March 2021 by Frasca International

What does it take to make great, hi-fidelity flight simulators, true to the aircraft?  There are a lot of answers to that question, but one answer might be a realistic flight model that can reproduce aircraft performance, flight dynamics, handling qualities and control feel throughout the operational envelope.  At Frasca, the Aeronautical Engineering team is responsible for making those things happen, and one of the invaluable capabilities that we rely on to that end is flight testing.  By flight testing the aircraft we seek to replicate, we acquire the needed data to make the sim fly like the aircraft.

How much does a Frasca simulator cost?

How Much Does a Frasca Flight Simulator Cost?

This is a great question and one we get more than any other. The quick answer is that price depends on several factors; training needs, the aircraft type, the level of the device qualification (FAA, JAA or equivalent), device features and more. Due to the wide range of flight simulation products available, the cost can range from several thousand dollars to several million. To get a more accurate answer, let’s dig a little deeper by breaking this down to product levels.

Frasca High Fidelity

Tuesday, 04 August 2020 by Frasca International
Frasca High Fidelity TBM-930

Unlike competitors who often start with commercially available computer games and attempt to boost fidelity from there, at Frasca, we produce our own flight modeling for our Level D full-flight simulators. We take what we learn in developing this high-level modeling and apply it down the line of our simulators.

We achieve this by investing in high fidelity in three significant ways (more…)
