The Beechcraft King Air flight training device was designed and built to meet FAA Level 3 FTD requirements. The actual King Air cockpit will accurately replicate the flight deck area of a Beechcraft King Air 200. King Air models 90 and 100 are also supported.
Display System
A TruVision 170 degree wrap around full visual screen is used that creates realistic, fully textured airport scenes. Day/night/dusk conditions are portrayed, as are various weather conditions such as; clouds, reduced visibility, snow, rain, lighting, and cross winds.

Aerodynamic Effects
The King Air flight training device will model the aircraft’s aerodynamics in accordance with the data package. This data will include the effect of aerodynamic changes for the various combinations of drag and thrust normally encountered in flight. These correspond to actual flight conditions including the effects of attitude, thrust, drag, altitude, temperature, gross weight, center of gravity location, and aircraft configuration.
Aircraft Systems Simulation Simulated aircraft systems will be operative to the extent required to perform normal, abnormal, and emergency operating procedures. These systems include but are not limited to; Engines, Electrical Systems, Flight Controls, Fuel System, Hydraulic System, Lighting System, Air-conditioning System, Pneumatics System, Pressurization System, and Propeller.
