Frasca Simulator at Whiting Field

Marine Maj. Ron Chino agreed. Chino, the rotary wing training officer for the Chief of Naval Air Training, demonstrated the new simulator.

Chino said the biggest advantage of the new system is that students can learn to hover inside the simulator before they fly in an actual helicopter. In the past, students could only practice hovering inside a real aircraft, he said.

Whiting Field’s new helicopter flight simulators are ‘huge leap forward’ in training

Frasca TEMSCO AS350 B2 FTD on Motion Cueing

February, 26, 2019. Urbana, IL. TEMSCO Helicopters, based in Ketchikan, Alaska has recently taken delivery of a FRASCA built AS350B2 Helicopter Flight Training Device (FTD).

TEMSCO, along with NorthStar and Coastal Helicopters will use the FTD to train their staff pilots. The main focus of the FTD will be training new tour pilots on routes and for transitioning from piston helicopters to the AS350, which is a more responsive helicopter.

“The FTD will also be used for mission training, dealing with rapidly changing weather, white-out conditions, and even flat light conditions; scenarios that can be encountered while flying around Alaska. These senarios can be experienced in the simulator to teach pilots to properly recognize and avoid any of these hazards when present,” stated Joe Hicks, Sr. Vice President of TEMSCO. (more…)
