Roger Aviation took delivery
of the first Frasca 242 Baron class Level 3 Flight Training Device
to be qualified by the FAA in May, 1996. The full-sized, dual
visual, airline class simulator is one of the country's most
sophisticated Flight Training Devices. It includes a custom designed
audio/video recording system that offers debriefing capabilities
previously found only at airline training centers. The simulator is
well equipped with the latest avionics, including:
- KLN90B Approach
Certified GPS
- Dual Needle RMI
- Radar Altimeter
- Pressurization
- KFC150 Autopilot
- Flight Director
- HSI
The simulator is designed
as a Beechcraft Baron 58P, but it can be configured to the
performance figures of most piston twin and high performance single
engine aircraft, based on actual flight test data. These include:
- Beech Duke, Baron,
Bonanza
- Cessna 300/400 Series
- Piper Navajo, Aztec,
Seneca
- Piper Malibu/Mirage
| The Frasca 242 is
controlled by the instructor or operator from the Graphical
Instructor Station (GISt). The instructor is able to input changes
in weather conditions, aircraft loading and systems failures without
interrupting the flight. In addition, the GISt allows the aircraft
to be relocated to virtually any airport in the United States for
maximum training efficiency and realism. |
