Maximize Your Helicopter Training
Training is foundational to every flight. Incorporating simulators or flight training devices (FTD) into your training regimen can remove the potential risks of in-aircraft training plus bring added effectiveness and lowered costs.
Safer, Smarter Environment
Compared with simulator training, in-aircraft training entails substantial drawbacks such as liability issues, avoidable wear and tear on the aircraft, and the inability to practice various types of critical emergencies.
Properly practicing a scenario in a simulator rather than imagining one in the aircraft could mean the life-saving difference during an actual crisis when the safety of those onboard comes down to split-second decisions. Simulators offer a safe platform for practical and comprehensive training, from performing the very basics to rehearsing the rare and unexpected.
Using state-of-the-art technology, normal and abnormal procedures can be simulated using a wide variety of aircraft, weather and environmental conditions without risk. Adverse and emergency events happen just as they would in the actual aircraft, presenting valuable practice opportunities.

Frasca International occupies a unique and storied position in the flight training device world, thanks to founder Rudy Frasca and his involvement in the early stages of building FTDs back in the 1950s. Now five of his eight children continue to carry the torch and keep the company ranked as one of the top simulator OEMs in the world.
Frasca president/CEO John Frasca and his siblings were raised in the world of aircraft. Their late father Rudy was as passionate about piloting aircraft as he was about building flight simulators to help make aircraft safer.
Now with 62 years of experience, Frasca International is the only major family-owned flight simulator company. It employs more than 130 people, and about 3,000 of its sims are being used across more than 70 countries.
