Entrol's H39 based on AW139 achieves FNPT II MCC certification

Entrol's H39 simulator has been certified as FNPT II MCC by Italian civil aviation authority ENAC for Heli Protection Europe (HPE), one of the most important helicopter schools in Europe.

This simulator is based on the popular AW139, a helicopter frequently used for SAR, EMS, offshore and law enforcement in many countries.

The simulator's cockpit is a replica of a Honeywell Primus 1000 avionics deck and it is equipped with dual FMS, WX-radar, ACAS II and a generic moving map.

Luis Olarte, Entrol´s CEO commented, “We are pleased that the H39 simulator has been certified and can now be officially used for training. It will allow AW139 operators to provide additional training like emergency procedures or SAR operation at a reasonable price.

“We worked very hard on the development to make it as real as possible. Everything has been manufactured with our in-house technology and we performed flight tests on a real AW139 to develop the flight model. This means for our customers an easier maintenance with no third party involved.”

The simulator has been also certified for LNAV, LNAV/VNAV and LPV.
