Case Study: TRU Simulation + Training achieves certified realism for Bell 429 pilot training with Barco F35 WQXGA projectors

Barco helps bring certified realism to TRU’s full-motion Bell 429 simulator

The customer, TRU Simulation + Training, needed a high-performance visual display system for its new Bell 429 full-flight simulator to provide ultimate realism and meet rigorous certification standards. The vendor, Barco, provided its F35 WQXGA projectors to be integrated into the solution.

Barco's solution of eleven F35 projectors delivered the high resolution and brightness required for unparalleled realism. The system's performance and reliability were key factors in the simulator achieving Level D certification from the European Aviation Safety Agency, a first for the Bell 429 model, and ensures the platform can operate 20 hours a day with 99% reliability.
