What our customers say about Precision Simulator PS1...

...everyone is more than delighted with the performance and capabilities of PS1. ... using this in a Flight Techniques and Analysis course; ... incorporating the software into a small cockpit type setup that would let us develop CRM scenarios; ... using same in our B747-400 preparation and briefings for an advanced training program some of our students go to at NATCO; etc. There will be many other opportunities that arise...

Prof. Pat Donahue, Embry Riddle Aeronautical University, Florida

...Our department bought a copy of the 747 Precision sim V1.0 when it first came out. We were very impressed with it...

Mike Nendick, Navigation and Human Factors, University of Newcastle

...We are interested in the 747-400 Precision Simulator ... Your name was given to me by an Aviation Safety Inspector ... He recommended that we consider making this available at all Flight Standards District Offices...

Deborah Wilcox, FAA, Flight Standards Distance Learning Program

...You have done a wonderful job! ... It would, I think, work in nicely with our CBT programs already in place, and a natural extension would be to "Part Task" trainers before moving on to our Fixed-Base, and Full-Flight simulators...

Mark D. Randolph, Flight Training Instructor 747-400, ex-FlightSafetyBoeing, Seattle

...I run courses in military and civil aviation psychology at the University of Abertay Dundee and I use your excellent flight sim to demonstrate the complexity of modern aircraft...

Dr. Malcolm J. Cook, University of Abertay Dundee

“...We have just started using PS1 to teach aircraft systems ... PS1 is proving to be a rapid method of teaching much of the necessary detail...”

...We are evaluating ps1 as part of an EC funded project called ECOTTRIS (EU Collaboration On Transition Training Research for Improved Safety)... we have been very impressed with the PS1 concept and will come out strongly in favour of the use and further development of similar PC- based aids to professional airline pilot training ... We have much enjoyed using your PS1!...

Captain Mike Lodge, British Airways, Project Pilot ECOTTRIS

...I am currently consulting to the UK DERA (Defence Evaluation Research Agency) team which is working on a research project called ECOTTRIS ... A member of the Bluecoat forum pointed out that you had a simulation of the FMC for a 747-400 ... I have to confess at being extremely impressed...

Dr. Colin Linsky

...We recently purchased Aerowinx Precision Simulator PS1 ... We would like to investigate the possibility of a site license...

Mary Lee Peterson, Dept. of Psychology, George Mason University

“...in a NASA sponsored project regarding Human Factors ... in cooperation with United Airlines ... our "pilot simulation" needs a "world" to interact, it was obvious to use your 747 simulator...”

...I use PS1 in an aviation psychology seminar to familiarize students with the workplace of an air transport pilot - and I think PS1 is the best solution for this purpose...

Dr. Raphael Diepgen, Faculty Psychology, Ruhr University Bochum

...it is only after this sort of experience in a full-motion 744 simulator that you appreciate how incredibly good PS1 is! With a background from general aviation only, I could enter the big bird with reasonable confidence...

Baard Maehle, University of Western Australia

...I'm currently involved in a NASA sponsored project regarding Human Factors/FMS handling ... The project is being performed in cooperation with United Airlines ... We purchased your 747-400 Precision Simulator and are very impressed ... As our "pilot simulation" needs a "world" to interact, it was obvious to use your 747 simulator...

Dr. Wolfgang Schoppek, Human Factors & Applied Cognition Program

...would like more information on your software ... I would like to familiarize our university students with the glass cockpit in the 747...

Darryl Stubbs, Director, Aviation, Norfolk State University

“...PS1 has been making its way through the NASA research centers and they are really awed...”

...the college bought your original program 747 precision simulator version 1.0. I have been asked to set up the program for classroom use for our 2nd year students doing their Airline Transport Pilots Licence studies, as a training aid...

Grant Lloyd, TAFE college / ATPL

...We have just started using PS1 to teach aircraft systems, FMC etc ... To evaluate the possible causes of accidents needs a good knowledge of electrical/electronic/pneumatic and hydraulic systems, plus flight operations. Our work is funded by the UK Guild of Air Pilots and Air Navigators, under their programme to support first class students working on air safety topics in UK universities. PS1 is proving to be a rapid method of teaching much of the necessary detail...

Prof. John Cullyer

...your simulation is great. It has been making its way through the NASA research centers and they are really awed...

Christine M. Mitchell, Ph.D., Human-Machine Systems Research, Georgia Institute of Technology

“...it seems that you have a handle on what is important to the professional airline pilot...”

...On a flight from Denver to LA ... The captain noticed PS1 running on my laptop ... he is a senior captain who had helped bring the 747-400 on line for UAL and also had been on committees evaluating computer training and simulators for the company. He and his crew were quite impressed ... The captain, Bob Meyer, said that PS1 was a lot better than anything he had seen to date...

Dr. Torrence Johnson, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena

ABOVE: Battery power is on, Standby Power is set to AUTO. The user can now start the APU (and/or request a GPU). PS1 offers unlimited free-play scenarios as provided on a full-motion sim. Every switch and system is fully alive, interacting in real-time. Why reserving a full-motion sim for basic systems familiarization?

...I have written a coupla books about simulator checkrides for airline pilots over the past years and they have been well received ... What is needed is JUST WHAT YOU ARE DOING! Something for the transitioning guy to take home and play with until he figures it out. ... it seems that you have a handle on what is important to the professional airline pilot...

Captain Mike Ray, 747-400 (ret.), United Airlines

...Great sim ... it is even better than I had hoped! The sim is almost perfect for practicing SOP's (Standard Operating Procedures), irregularities and emergencies ... Thank you very much...

Paul Hubbert, 747-400, United Airlines

“...just what the doctor ordered...”

...I only wish that PS1 had been available before I went to upgrading to the -400 airplane from the -100 airplane. It would have been a BIG help to me in that transition!!...

J. J., 747-400 (ret.), United Airlines

...It appears to sound like your PC based PS1 may be just what the doctor ordered...

Captain Archie Hall, B747 / DC10 / DC8 / B727, Federal Express Corporation

...Many thanks for your kind assistance in the past ... I got a phone call from our training supervisor who would like to express his appreciation ... he thinks PS1 is quite good...

Frank Hou, Deputy Manager, Eva Airways

“...WHAT A TRAINING AID...”

...I'm a B747-400 Captain currently flying the 747-400 for China Airlines and I'm also a Simulator Instructor for Flight Safety Boeing Training International ... I feel that PS1 would help me and both company's pilots, that is Korean Air and China Airlines. As a flight instructor for FSBTI, this product could be purchased for all of our instructors. WHAT A TRAINING AID...

Captain T. Peter Cutsey, 747-400, China Airlines /Korean Airlines /FSBTI

...Air Canada are using FMS to ILS Transition procedures ... In the UK we are starting to trial these procedures as well ... we hope to have it at Edinburgh and Glasgow next year. My copy of PS1 was bought specifically to help design these procedures ... I'm pleased to say that I was on board a 757-200 into Glasgow last week which tried the PS1 designed procedure and it all worked perfectly...

Derek Pake

...I work for British Airways Flight Training and must be one of your earliest users of PS1... I have continually updated and now need to purchase PS1.3 ... keep up this fantastic simulator...

Laurie Aston, British Airways Flight Training

...Many thanks for sending v1.2 of PS1 - it finally got through our internal mail system! I've now installed it on my work-machine, and it's definitely raising some eyebrows! ... Keep up the good work...

Richard Cook, British Airways Flight Training

...excellent program ... a masterpience of software engineering ... I believe the FMS section alone would make a worthwhile stand-alone training program, which many airlines and training schools would want to use...

Martin Glass, British Airways

...excellent program ... tomorrow I start my conversion to the 747-400 ... as one who is not used to the glass cockpit (ex military then Tristars and DC10s) it is an excellent introduction...

Jim Duckham, 747-400,  British Airways

...very impressed with the program, the only thing that's slightly different (and I mean the only thing!) is the EPR settings for various stages of flight ... I'm sure your PS has a future in 747-400 training...

Peter Collins, 747-400, British Airways

“...If you are starting out on the path of airline interviews and sim tests then consider the PS1...”

...Love the sim, I use it to practice procedures and get used to airports I haven't seen for a while prior to every sim check. Thanks for a great product...

Matt Hicks, 747, Qantas

...I just got a job with Qantas flying the 747-200! While PS1 wasn't yet released to help me with the entrance tests, flying PS1 over the last 8 months have given me a great insight into the 747 which I am sure will help in the future...

Steven Jamieson, 747-200, Qantas

...Glass cockpit EFIS knowledge is now part of the Australian Commercial and ATPL license syllabus. Several aviation instructional organisations are seriously considering using PS1 for this purpose. If you are starting out on the path of airline interviews and sim tests then consider the PS1, it will greatly help your preparation and give you invaluable insight into modern airline avionics...

Captain Sean Trestrail, 767 / 747-400, Qantas

...I am very impressed with your B747-400 simulator. Only wish I had access to it when I flew the 400. I am now on the B767, with Qantas...

“...Your product gave me that edge I needed, and when it came to my sim ride I was very confident and did extremely well. It was all thanks to your simulator...”

...just gained employment as a first officer flying 767's. Your product gave me that edge I needed, and when it came to my sim ride I was very confident and did extremely well. It was all thanks to your simulator...

Andrew Christos, 767, Qantas

...from what I hear your program is almost a mandatory homestudy add-on! ... I started a B747-400 conversion course today and really need the program ... to cope with all the wizardry involved. ... Everyone in Qantas who hasn't flown glass uses or needs this program to make life easier and less stressful!...

Ian Wagner, 747-400, Qantas

BELOW: Malfunctions can be pre-programmed in every imaginable sequence. Each malfunction (whose intensity and exact problem may be “random” generated itself) can cause another malfunction and so on due to other connected systems. When getting confronted with complex scenarios the pilot is accordingly under pressure and has to make the right decisions very quickly.

...wonderful simulation package! ... I'll be at Boeing Seattle for my simulator training as a B747-400 First Officer. Your PS1 is indeed a big help in my preparation. I appreciate every aspect of it - both the systems and the flight handling...

Jorge C. Herrera, 747-400, Philippine Airlines

Captain Mel J. Ott, 747-400 (ret.), Northwest Airlines

...Looks like something we should look into for training purposes ... I teach 747-400 Systems and am VERY interested in seeing what you have developed...

Gary DeBaun, Northwest Airlines

...and practise the drills until I know them backwards and know exactly what other systems will be affected and what EICAS messages etc. will appear, ... PS1 is invaluable there ... PS1 has really made a big difference to my sim checks ... which is all down to using PS1, something that is fun to do anyway!...

Jon Bunting, 747-400, Virgin Atlantic

“...during the simulator training, at AA training center, in Dallas, I felt right at home, while other pilots with lots of jet experience, had some problems...”

...PS1 helped me a lot in transitioning from a piston twin to an EFIS-equiped jet. In fact, during the simulator training, at AA training center, in Dallas, I felt right at home, while other pilots with lots of jet experience, had some problems in adapting to the highly automated environment. You've done a superb job! ... excellent work!...

Paulo Marcelo Soares, TAM Airlines

...The professional: B747-400 Precision Simulator from Aerowinx is not a game at all ... All user interfaces are close to the original and are accordingly complex. The simulator is a serious training platform...

Aerokurier magazine
