Training & Simulation

The Airbus Helicopters Training & Flight Ops mission is to design and provide innovative training solutions to support customers, which is key to enhancing operational safety.

Efficient helicopter operations are directly linked to the proficiency of pilots, flight crew and technicians, as well as their ability to safely operate and maintain rotorcraft during a full range of conditions and missions.

Instructors are continuously working hand-in-hand with customers to identify and implement the best training solutions to reach customer’s requirements.

Our training centres network is equipped with a full range of pedagogical training means including OEM data pack simulation training devices to provide the most true-to-life experience possible, and full-scale mock-ups for practical training

Online training solutions are continuously being developed enabling trainees to learn from their home base at their own pace.

Training courses are aimed at three key professions

The technician airframe (mechanics) where the main aim is the training of line Maintenance on aircraft structure, power plant and mechanical and electrical systems, avionic systems requiring simple tests to prove their serviceability and no troubleshooting. In Japan and China, this designed course is a combined course as requested by their authorities, the technician avionics where the main aim is the training of line Maintenance performed on avionic, electrical systems and avionics tasks within powerplant and mechanical systems requiring only simple test and minor scheduled line maintenance and the pilots.

Simulation for pilots training

Several types of simulators are available like Flight&Navigation Procedure Trainer - FNPT , Flight Training Device - FTD and Full Flight Simulator - FFS . The different levels of certification are recognized by the approval authorities like Level 3 for FTD and level B and D for FFS.
