The JAR-STD 3H FNPT II approved Elite S723 Evolution is customised to simulate a single engine turbine helicopter, based on the Eurocopter AS350BA Squirrel. It features an external visual system, a fully enclosed cockpit and IOS cabinet, dual pilot instrumentation screen and controls layout.

Please download the full FNPT documentation here.

Simcopter offers besides the S723 Simulator the following services:

• Preparation of initial qualification test guide (iQTG) for fixed wing and rotary wing aircraft type FNPT I, FNPT II and FNPT II MCC.

The qualification test guide is the primary reference document used for the evaluation of a Flight & Navigation Procedures Trainer. It contains test results, statements of compliance and other information to enable the evaluator to asses if the device meets the test criteria described in the JAR STD 3A / 3H manual. Further more, the QTG includes both Aircraft and FNPT data used to support the validation.

Example pages of a QTG can be downloaded here: Qualification test guide AS350BA

• Preparation of recurrent qualification test guide (rQTG) for fixed wing and rotary wing aircraft type FNPT I, FNPT II and FNPT II MCC.

Following satisfactory completion of the initial evaluation and qualification tests, a periodic check system must be established to ensure that the FNPT continues to maintain its initially qualified performance, functions and other characteristics. The operator shall run the complete QTG between each annual evaluation by the authority.

Example of the software tool for the master and recurrent QTG tests: Analyzer

While all Evolution S723 FNPT devices will be delivered with an initial Qualification Test Guide, Simcopter offers recurrent QTG tests as an additional service.

Simcopter and Elite do not use Microsoft Flightsimulator or X-Plane for any part of the software.
