USA – new simulator manufacturer Flytpath Aviation has unveiled the FP7+, a fully integrated Cirrus G7+ training ecosystem that combines full-motion capability, mixed reality (XR), and advanced instructor-led scenarios to deliver an immersive, high-fidelity flight training experience.

• Flytpath’s FP7+ addresses key limitations in general aviation simulation, offering a high-utilization, high-ROI alternative to fixed-base and desktop setups often used in procedural training.

• The simulator features:

  • 6DoF Motion Platform: Simulates acceleration, turbulence, attitude change, and ground vibration to improve instinctive pilot responses and flight awareness.

  • Visual System: Uses a Level D-capable image generator to simulate realistic terrain, weather, and environmental conditions.

  • Varjo XR-4 Headset: Replaces mirror systems with high-resolution stereoscopic XR, enabling a 360° immersive cockpit view with human-eye-level realism.

  • Instructor Operating Station (IOS): Allows scenario control with failure injection, real-time weather adjustments, and instant replay with pilot POV recordings for debriefing.

  • Scenario-Based Modules: Enables training for real-world events—engine failures, windshear, terrain avoidance, and accident reconstruction—enhancing safety readiness.

• The FP7+ aims to redefine general aviation training by introducing airline-grade fidelity and immersive technology into piston-engine simulator environments.
