CAE qualified first simulators with UPRT stations
CAE has qualified the first EASA-approved, FAA-approved and ICAO-compliant aircraft simulators with Upset Prevention and Recovery Training (UPRT) instructor stations, the company announced on 21 April.
With the qualification of these simulators CAE claims to be an early adopter of industry standards to prevent Loss of Control In Flight (LOC-I).
Over 1,200 CAE cadets, instructors and pilots have already received UPRT on aircraft or simulators. This includes over 100 instructors and CAE cadets that have completed Aviation Performance Solutions' on-aircraft training.
The UPRT module is now qualified for various devices and can be retrofitted into existing CADE devices. It is also a new standard part of the CAE 7000XR Series full-flight simulator. The instructor station displays the plot of the valid flight training envelope and replica of the primary flight display.
The system is tuned for line-oriented flight training and manoeuvre training, enabling the instructor to command the entry in various configurable upset situations.
