Aeromexico opens its Boeing flight simulator 787 designed with eyevis projectors

Located in the Aeromexico Training Center, the Boeing flight simulator 787 has been built by LMCFT to optimize the training of airline pilots. Three eyevis ESP-LWXT projectors have been used in its design, offering WUXGA resolution.

Aeromexico, in partnership with Lockheed Martin Commercial Flight Training (LMCFT), has presented its new Boeing flight simulator 787 at the Training Center, located near Mexico City's Benito Juarez International Airport.

This device will allow the pilots of the airline to train in operating conditions of great realism, optimizing the programming and control of training of the most 200 pilots operating the 9 Boeing equipment 787 to and from London, Madrid, Paris, Tokyo, Los Angeles, New York, Buenos Aires and Santiago de Chile.

In addition, the training processes will be carried out in Mexico avoiding sending the crew abroad, which will represent a significant decrease in costs, while increasing the availability and productivity of pilots to the flight line.

It is the first of its kind to be installed in Mexico and Latin America and has been certified by the Directorate General of Civil Aeronautics (DGAC) with the maximum recognition that a simulator receives in terms of safety and air operation.

“We are honored to join Aeromexico to celebrate the Level D qualification of the first B787 simulator in your country. We have given them a technologically advanced simulator, adapted to the sophisticated training needs that Aeromexico needs, as its pilots and crews support the growing market demand for global passenger transport and trade", comment Sandy Samuel, vice president of LMCFT.

Manufactured by Lockheed Martin Commercial Flight Training (LMCFT), offers the crew real aircraft panels and a viewing field of 200 Degrees, as well as an EP8000 image generator with projectors eyevis that facilitate panoramic views of flight more sensitive to navigation and a base of electropneumatic movement that allows to simulate the conditions of flight before different climatic conditions.

It also incorporates a fixed simulator Graphical Flight Deck Smulator (SFM) that will make the use of the flight simulator more efficient, especially in the initial trainings.

In addition, has more than 30 different simulation scenarios, among which are the Mexico City International Airport, London and Paris.
This action complements its constant fleet renewal, updating and modernizing its Boeing flight simulators 737 and Embraer, the development of the web platform, mobile applications and the use of social networks.

Eyevis projectors ESP-LWXT

For the design of this simulator have been used three projectors ESP-LWXT, belonging to the ESP series of eyevis. A model of 800-1.000 lumens and a contrast ratio 16:10, offering a WUXGA resolution with 1920×1200 Pixels, bright colors and perfect levels of black.

The robust design of this equipment, with its metal housing, enables integration into high-vibration environments and motion-based simulations. Its reliable Led lighting and maintenance-free cooling guarantee operation for a long period of time. The optical system that has been used in this projector derives from the rear projection cubes of eyevis, which are known for their image quality and reliability.
