TRU Simulation announces delivery and acceptance of the Bell 505 Flight Training Device to Royal Jordanian Air Force
TRU Simulation + Training announced delivery and acceptance of the Bell 505 Flight Training Device (FTD) to the Royal Jordanian Air Force (RJAF).
“The Bell 505 Flight Training Device provides the Royal Jordanian Air Force a highly advanced training solution that enhances pilot readiness through realistic simulation of flight procedures and emergency scenarios,” said Jerry Messaris, vice president and general manager, TRU Simulation. “We are honored to collaborate with Bell in delivering this advanced capability, reflecting our shared commitment to the global advancement of aviation training technology.”
The Bell 505 Flight Training Device (FTD) is an advanced simulation tool that accurately replicates the current production model of the Bell 505 helicopter, incorporating additional requested features. The device includes a detailed Bell 505 cockpit frame, featuring two Garmin G1000H NXi display units, a simulated electronic standby instrument module, a Garmin GMA 350Hc, a simulated Technisonic TDFM-920 radio, aircraft seats, flight controls and all other necessary aircraft panels.
Additionally, the aerodynamics, engine, controls and sound models are designed to achieve the highest possible fidelity, ensuring a realistic training experience. It supports training in both visual and instrument meteorological environments. The direct projection surround visual system enhances the training experience by providing full immersion and the capability for formation flying training. The 505 FTD configuration meets the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) qualification requirements for Level 5 FTD at a minimum under Title 14 CFR Part 60.
