The altimeter trainer provides the instructor or student with a fully functional altimeter and servo altimeter that receive barometric input from a 3D aircraft located within a window on the right of the screen.
The user has full control over aircraft altitude and can therefore demonstrate or observe how altitude is indicated on both these instruments.
Both instruments are supported with interactive schematic diagrams that also receive barometric input from the 3D aircraft. This allows the internal operation of each instrument to be observed right across an altitude range of -1,000 ft up to 50,000 ft.


An interactive flap position indicator with Desynn transmitter.
The position indication trainer provides a flap position indicator and schematic diagram of a Desynn transmitter that both receive input from the flap position of a 3D aircraft.
The user has full control over the flap position and can observe the mechanical and electrical operation of the Desynn system through the entire flap movement


A close-up of the animated current flow through the thermocouple.
The engine temperature trainer provides an EGT (exhaust gas temperature) gauge that receives its input from a schematic diagram of a thermocouple harness.
The user has control over engine temperature by sliding the thrust lever forwards or backwards and can observe how the temperature in the engine causes current to flow through the thermocouple harness.
The location of the thermocouple harness on the aircraft is identified using an animated 3D sequence that zooms in to one of the engines and then fades out obstructing layers to highlight the termocouple harness below.


Typical hydraulic pressure gauge

The pressure indication trainer provides the instructor or student with a typical hydraulic pressure gauge that takes its input from an animated schematic diagram of a Bourdon tube high pressure transmitter.
The user may control the pressure within the system in order to demonstrate or observe the behaviour of the Bourdon tube and wiper arm as the pressure changes.
