FlightSafety has achieved level-D qualification from the FAA and the European Aviation Safety Administration for its FS1000 Dassault Falcon 2000LXS simulator. The sim is now in operation at the company’s Learning Center at the Paris-Le Bourget Airport. The simulator incorporates electric motion control and cueing, a multifunction instructor station and FlightSafety’s VITAL 1100 visual system, providing highly realistic imagery.

The full-motion simulator incorporates Dassault’s new FalconEye combined vision system (CVS), which blends thermal and low-light camera images with synthetic vision on an Elbit head-up display. The simulator can also convert to a Rockwell Collins HUD. Honeywell’s EASy II Second Cert avionics suite is mounted on the Falcon 2000LXS panel.

In addition to initial, recurrent and update training for pilots flying the Falcon 2000LXS, the FlightSafety Paris Learning Center provides training for maintenance technicians and flight attendants for the aircraft. In addition to the 2000LXS, the center offers training on the complete line of Dassault Falcon jets and several Embraer jets.
