R&D case: Virtual Cockpit training demonstrator

Training devices that fit your training needs often require large investments and are usually type -specific. There are currently no training devices that allow highly realistic interaction between the pilot and cockpit instruments, without the disadvantages associated with expensive high-end devices. The Virtual Cockpit bridges this gap by providing the technology to do just that: low-cost and high-fidelity training technology.

R&D case: Flexible and scalable future training

The PC-7 training aircraft of the Royal Netherlands Air Force (RNLAF) needs to be replaced. A Training Needs Analysis (TNA) and Training Media Analysis (TMA) were therefore done, aiming to provide a solution for the replacement of the entire initial training capacity. This training capacity needs to be flexible and scalable to meet the changing training needs in the future. As a result, the following questions should be answered clearly:
