Spain's Alpha acquires AS350 FTD from entrol
When Alpha Aviation went looking for a Level 5 simulator it landed on entrol, drawing confidence from the staff and their professional knowledge. It plans to add more entrol FTDs in the future.
The simulator will be equipped with a cylindrical visual system, an enclosed IOS and a debriefing station.

Spain-based flight simulator developer entrol has sold an AS350 FTD Level 5 simulator to Alpha Aviation, the number one flight training academy in Japan for the last 11 years.

The simulator will be equipped with the latest entrol technology, including a cylindrical visual system, an enclosed IOS and a debriefing station so that the instructors can record the activities in the simulator and analyse them later.

"We are proud that we are increasing our presence in Japan; we hope we can cooperate with Alpha Aviation for many years and increase the bonds between the companies. We appreciate the trust Alpha Aviation has in our products, and we expect to deliver without inconvenience," says business manager Iñigo Hernández.

Alpha Aviation vice president Kenji Saito adds: “We were looking for a sophisticated FTD to facilitate the evolution of flight training. At first, I tried to find one made in the US. However, I was impressed with the professional explanation and knowledge of entrol's staff and decided to introduce it. We plan to increase the number of entrol FTDs in the future.”

This simulator will be installed in Alpha Aviation's base in Tokyo in the upcoming months.
