1.3.1 Cockpit
version
Actual aircraft hardware components are not used – except for the Garmin 430 GPS option.
Factors which have resulted in the use of replicas include:
a) Cost
b) Reliability - Aircraft use is more restrictive (e. g. airworthiness) than STD use.
c) Ease of Maintenance - Maintenance access is necessarily different from the aircraft.
d) Availability - Many aircraft components have unacceptable long lead times leading
to delays in FNPT delivery.
1.3.2 Instructor Station
The instructor station, consisting of two 17” TFT Flat screens will give the instructor access
to the following functions:
� Environment conditions
� Aircraft status
� Freeze selection
� Repositions
� Pre-selection of environmental conditions
� Malfunction selection
� Selection of visual conditions
� Navigation area selection
� Simulated ATC communication with the cockpit crew
� Selection of initial conditions
� FNPT & QTG control page
� Visual setup page
1.3.3 Dynamic Control Loading
The dynamic control loading system provides the pilot and copilot with a precise, repeatable
control force and natural control response. A safety system is implemented, to protect both
the user and the hardware from equipment failures and human error.
1.3.4 External Visual System
The standard one channel projection system provides a generic representation of the terrain
and conforms to the JAR STD 3A requirements for FNPT II and FNPT II MCC. For more
details refer to chapter 9.1.
1.3.5 Computer System
The computer system consists of the current industry standard PC.
The current industry standard of software is used for the operating system, as well as for the
simulation software. As of January 2005, Elite is using standard Windows Operating
Systems.
