FlightSafety International

FlightSafety International is a simulator-based training company whose contribution to aviation began with its founding in 1951. The company’s special emphasis is on developing proficiency in the safe and effective operation of complex, potentially hazardous equipment. This normally means training pilots and maintenance technicians for all types of aircraft. FlightSafety’s FAA-certified training revolves around the use of advanced simulators that replicate with certified accuracy the experience of flying. FlightSafety’s aircraft simulators are designed and built by its Simulator Systems near Tulsa. Company training encompasses all facets of aviation – commercial, corporate, private and military. Included in its military programs, FlightSafety operates and maintains the C-5, KC-135, AND KC-10 Aircrew Training Systems for the United States Air Force. It also operates the Contractor Logistics Support (CLS) program for the T-38 program. The company has developed and deployed the Joint Primary Aircrew Training System (JPATS) ground based training system for the USAF and the Navy and provides logistics support for its continued operation. Since its founding, the company has always championed that: “The best safety device in any aircraft is a well-trained crewmember.”
