alx FOR THE MPL PROGRAM

This document will demonstrate how to operate the ALX in

an MPL training course. The MPL program relies on 4 core phases,

3 of which can be done in the ALSIM’s ALX.

SIMULATION FEATURES & FIDELITY LEVELS

Four fidelity levels were used to decide, for each training task,

the minimum level of fidelity required for each simulation feature

( i.e. None, Generic, Representative and Specific).

The features were then split in three categories as follows:

Aircraft simulation comprises the following simulation features:

» Cockpit layout & structure

» Flight model (aero & engine)

» Ground handling

» Aircraft systems

» Flight controls and forces

Cueing simulation comprises the following simulation features:

» Sound cue

» Visual cue

» Motion cue

Environment simulation comprises the following simulation features:

» Environment – ATC

» Environment – Navigation

» Environment – Weather

» Environment – Airports & terrain

MPL Phase 1 MPL Phase 2 MPL Phase 2/3

Core Flying skills Basic Intermediate

The ALX perfectly complies with phases 1 and 2, whereas most of the phase 3 can be transferred to an extended phase 2 thanks to the ALX specifications. Let us show you how.

ALX MPL PROGRAM

The above matrix shows that the ALX complies with phases 1 & 2 requirements and most of the features required for phase 3. By using the ALX, you can extend the phase 2, minimizing phase 3, saving the time and the investment of doing the complete phase 3 in a Full Flight Simulator.

In the MPL program, it is safe to say that phases 1 and 4 are well defined.

However, phases 2 and 3 remain flexible. Aeronautx and Fly Niki designed

an MPL syllabus which takes advantage of the ALX ‘s capacities in the jet

environment.

FIRST ALX SIMULATOR IN AUSTRIA FOR AERONAUTX

First ALSIM simulator in Austria! Aeronautx took delivery of an ALX

in November 2010. Thanks to ALSIM efficiency, the customer has the

possibility to start his training only 1 month after order. ALSIM is now

present in +50 countries worldwide:

TESTIMONIAL

“We operate a small and high

quality FTO in Central Europe. To

start our MPL program for Fly Niki

we needed a training device to

prepare our students for A320 and

E190 airplanes. After an extensive evaluation and search we acquired an ALX for

the simple fact that this is the only available unit worldwide that offers a brilliant

training environment for basic IR up to MCC, without any compromises on any

level of training. Next to MPL, the ALX will offer us the best also for traditional

training scheme.”
