SimuFlite's new Beechjet 400A full flight simulator received Level D qualification from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in October. SimuFlite now has simulators for four Raytheon aircraft: the Hawker 700, Hawker 800/1000, King Air 200 and the Beechjet. Two more Raytheon Level D devices are on order: the King Air 350 simulator will be available for training next February, and the Hawker 800XP simulator will be brought online next July.

The Beechjet 400A simulator features the Collins Pro Line 4 fully integrated avionics system, dual AMS-5000 flight management systems with global positioning navigation, Allied Signal Mk V EGPWS, Collins TCAS-94 (TCAS II) and Collins TWR-850 weather radar. The visual system is an Evans & Sutherland ESIG-3350, offering a panoramic view of 180 degrees.

The simulator was manufactured by NLX, Sterling, Va.

Four additional simulators are on order: the CitationJet and Sikorsky S-76 are scheduled to arrive in 2002 and the Falcon 900B/C/EX and Falcon 2000 are scheduled to arrive in the first quarter of 2003.
