Helicopter Maritime Environment Trainer: Operator Manual (Simulateur D'Entrainement Virtuel Maritime: Manuel de L'Operateur)

Abstract

The Helicopter Maritime Environment Trainer (HelMET) was developed by Defence R&D Canada - Toronto (DRDC Toronto) for training helicopter pilots to land on the flight deck of a Canadian Patrol Frigate (CPF) in a virtual environment. The HelMET was installed at 12 Wing, Canadian Forces Base (CFB) Shearwater, Nova Scotia, Canada. [reference: Summary per document cited in next paragraph]. DRDC Toronto Document: CR2002-022 Atlantis Document: ED997-00368 titled Helicopter Maritime Environment Trainer: Operator Manual documented Version 1.1 of the HelMET Software. As third party support for the HelMET system did not come to fruition, DRDC Toronto has been supporting the HelMET system at 12th Wing Shearwater with hardware and software updates. The current version of HelMET is Version 4.4. Many of the updates implemented were made to allow the simulator to be used as a procedures trainer. This document is a revision of CR2002-022 updated to reflect the large number of changes that have been implemented by DRDC Toronto since version 1.1. The purpose of this document is to update the description so that the system can be maintained and operated by Director Aerospace Development Program Management, Radar and Communications Systems or its representatives.
