Transportable Flight Proficiency Simulator (TFPS)

Abstract

The TFPS is a certified trainer using high fidelity, motion cueing, transportable, flight simulator capable of training to include training for mission tasks and emergency procedures and provides flying hour dollars savings. The Block II TFPS is required to safely support initial trainer and operator aircrew training for the Limited User Test (LUT) and beyond. The TFPS will decrease risk to unit aircrew and trainers by allowing them to train with the new design modifications, handling quality changes and pilot visibility differences versus learning in aircraft. Training in the TFPS significantly reduces LUT timelines and improves aircrew proficiency as confirmed in the CH-47F (Block I) Phase 2 User Test Report. Additionally, the initial TFPS serves as a prototype for the remainder of the required TFPS upgrades.
