REGIONAL JET TRANSITION DEVICE
Give your program a competitive advantage: A capstone course designed around our high-fidelity E170 training device designed to provide a stronger pathway to a successful commercial airline job.
Our Regional Jet Transition Device, developed in cooperation with Honeywell and Embraer, familiarizes newly licensed pilots with the controls, flight characteristics, and performance of the E170, the plane they will be required to learn as they become a commercial pilot. Our premium software, identical to that used by our regional airline customers, enables students to practice a variety of scenarios, while the ultra-realistic controls provide 1-to-1 transfer of training. In addition, this device helps students learn essential Crew Resource Management (CRM) skills.
Meticulously Designed
• Physical controls function like those in aircraft
• Touchscreen monitors respond to touch inputs
• Auxiliary monitors display functional schematics and graphical panels
• Rudder pedals
• Enclosed flight deck
• Interactive representation of cockpit
• Motorized autothrottles
• Adjustable seats
COMPREHENSIVE SOFTWARE
Utilizing an Embraer-provided data package, Honeywell avionics rehost, and FSI’s software baseline, our device expertly simulates:
• Flight actions
• Weather radar indications
• Terrain mapping
• Selected navigation stations
• Traffic alert and collision avoidance system (TCAS)
• Aural callouts such as engine and environmental sounds
USER-FRIENDLY INSTRUCTOR’S OPERATING STATION (IOS)
Easy-to-navigate IOS includes two touchscreens so the instructor can quickly adjust training sessions. The instructor can control cockpit circuit breakers, aircraft malfunctions, environmental conditions, ambient temperatures, icing, runway conditions, atmospheric wind effects, ground radio station data, and radio facilities.

Power
• 2 separate 120VAC 15A electrical circuits, each with a Nema-5-15 type receptacle
• Device also supports 240VAC services without the use of an additional transformer
Network connectivity
• Can be connected via ethernet to a building LAN for remote diagnostics and file loading from a central file servicer
• Do not need to be connected to the LAN to operate
• Can operate with no network connectivity, but we strongly recommend connectivity for support purposes
These are typical facility requirements. Actual requirements will be finalized with you during the Design Review or prior to facility construction.
