Simulators
Central Washington University utilizes six flight simulators for training that include a visual system that mimics a real-life experience of flying. Four of the flight simulators model our Piper Archer aircraft, which ensures our students are learning correct procedures and habits as all of the menu selections and button pushes are performed in the simulator as in the aircraft.
Frasca RTDs (Piper Archer G1000 NXi)
This is the newest addition to our department. This simulator mocks Piper Archer with G1000 NXi; the fleet that we use in flight training. Simulator training is incorporated in our Part 141 training, which will expedite the student's flight training progress.
Main Features:
- CWU currently has 4 Frasca RTDs
- Mock up of actual Piper PA-28-181 Archer including flap handle
- Officially licensed real G1000 NXi Software
- Able to simulate location, weather, and performance
