The Police of the Czech Republic has taken delivery of an H145 FNPT II MCC simulator from entrol. This represents a significant milestone as the first entrol flight training device to be installed in the country, further expanding the company's footprint in Europe.

entrol's H145 FNPT II MCC simulator is designed to provide high-fidelity training experiences due to a visual system powered by Xplane 11's extensive database, covering key airports such as Prague, Karlovy Vary, Ostrava and Nuremberg.

The simulator's mission scenarios package ensures that the Czech Police can train effectively for various critical situations. The additional options, such as virtual reality hoist management, a forward-looking infrared camera, a smoke machine and an external mission mirror, significantly enhance the training realism.

The factory acceptance test was successfully completed on 27 June. Thus installation and certification of the simulator are expected to follow shortly, providing the Czech Police with state-of-the-art training tools.

The newly implemented spherical visual seven-channel system, first used in the H145 FNPT II MCC simulator for the Czech Police, offers a superior 200 degree by 70 degree field of view. This visual system enhances vertical FOV, which is particularly beneficial for helicopter training, including challenging missions such as firefighting and search and rescue operations. The system's design includes a platform above the cabin, facilitating easier maintenance too.

entrol's commitment to innovation ensures that all new simulators equipped with spherical visual systems provide unparalleled training experiences. Each simulator's visual database is tailored to the client's specific needs, maintaining entrol's tradition of delivering customised, high-quality training solutions
