This meeting marks the operational launch of a project that will bring a world-class H135/H145 Level D full-flight simulator to EHC’s upcoming training center at Lelystad Airport, near Amsterdam. The device will support multi-mission pilot and crew training for civilian, commercial, EMS, military, and offshore operations.

Set in the picturesque surroundings of the Sternberger See, the teams came together for productive discussions and shared planning. More than a symbolic gathering, this marked the first formal project milestone, outlining key technical steps, timelines, and collaboration structures to successfully bring the simulator into operation.

A Shared Vision for Advanced Helicopter Training The Level D full-flight simulator, featuring REISER’s proven roll-on/roll-off platform, will allow training on both H135 and H145 aircraft models within one device. This flexibility ensures maximum training efficiency and a future-ready solution for EHC’s expanding operations.

“We truly enjoyed hosting EHC at our home base in Berg,” said Dr. Thomas Nicolay, CSO of REISER Simulation and Training. “The collaborative spirit and shared purpose set the tone for what we believe will be a highly successful partnership.”

“This project represents a major leap forward in our mission to provide world-class helicopter training,” added Jeroen Peddemors, CEO of European Heli Center. “Together with REISER, we are shaping a future-ready training environment designed to serve not only European operators but pilots and crews around the globe.”

A Global Invitation to Operators and Training Partners With this project officially underway, European Heli Center warmly welcomes helicopter operators and pilots from around the world to begin early planning for their future training needs. As the simulator and training center take shape, our team is fully available to support prospective clients in developing customized training roadmaps to ensure seamless onboarding once operations begin.

Conveniently located near Amsterdam International Airport—a major hub with multiple direct flight connections worldwide—the state-of-the-art training facility is easily accessible for operators and crews from across the globe. From pilot training planning to logistical and travel coordination, EHC is committed to providing a comprehensive and accessible solution for every operator, large or small.
