FlightSafety International expanded its Gulfstream G280 training with the addition of a simulator at its Wilmington, Delaware facility, marking the third location where it offers training on the type. The company, which is the authorized training provider on the G280, also provides simulator training for the super-midsize jet at its centers in Savannah, Georgia, and Dallas.

Noting that a range of training programs will be offered for the G280 in Wilmington, Nathan Speiser, executive v-p of sales and marketing, said, “We work closely with Gulfstream to ensure our simulators and training programs reflect the exact operating characteristics of the aircraft and meet the highest standard set by aviation regulatory authorities around the world.”

Equipped with the Collins Pro Line Fusion PlaneView 280 avionics suite, the simulator incorporates a dual flight management system with LPV and RNP capabilities, an integrated flight information system, and a head-up guidance system with enhanced vision system that provides for EFVS touchdown and rollout training.

The simulator further features FlightSafety’s CrewView collimated glass mirror display, Vital 1150 Visual System, and a new advanced instructor operating station.
