Simulator for Avanti II is first in Europe
Heli Protection Europe has added to its roster of Entrol simulators with an A18 model based on Piaggio's Avanti II turboprop. Users can traverse a high resolution version of Italy.
The Entrol A18 simulator's cockpit is a replica of a Collins Pro Line 21 with WX-radar, FMS and ESIS.

The entrol A18 simulator has been certified as FNPT II MCC for Heli Protection Europe, so becoming the first FNPT II MCC simulator based on a Piaggio Avanti II to be installed in Europe.

The simulator's cockpit is a replica of a Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 with WX-radar, FMS and ESIS. It has a cylindrical visual with a three-channel projection system and a high resolution database of Italy.

Heli Protection Europe is a company specialised in airworthiness management, education, training and operations with helicopters, airplanes and drones. Created in 2009 by leading companies in the European aeronautical sector, it continues to expand, thanks to a young and motivated team.

Since 2005, entrol has developed and manufactured helicopter and fixed-wing FNPT and FTD simulators for flight schools, airlines and operators in order to improve pilot training, increase security on aircraft operations and reduce operational costs.

entrol simulators are covered by a comprehensive after-sales service and designed according to CS-FSTD and FAA FTD directives.
