Crew Resource Management

"You virtually assume the entire action directly and share spectacular visual and acoustic impressions far beyond the scope of an everyday scheduled flight."

Your role You virtually assume the role of first officer and support the pilot in command in a delicate mission which takes him to the limits of his capabilities with his twin-engine Beechcraft Baron 58. Through targeted communicative support by means of processing authentic checklists, you support him in the handling of the aircraft, and thus enable him to focus his flying possibilities beyond the general limits. Since you are together in a small cockpit, you can experience the entire action directly and share spectacular visual and acoustic impressions far beyond the scope of an everyday scheduled flight.

The flight simulator . . . . . .

. . . is based on a Beechcraft Baron 58, a fast twin-engine light aircraft in the multi-engine piston category with retractable undercarriage and adjustable propellers, which in addition to the pilot offers space for 5 passengers or a corresponding amount of cargo.

Two Teledyne Continental IO-550C engines with 300 HP each enable a speed of up to 400 km/ h.

With a maximum takeoff weight of 2,495 kg your "Beech Baron" is licensed as N999TS "Tango Sierra" and is fully equipped for instrument flight. The cybernetics of the simulator take into account sound, triaxial-motion, 180 °-3D-vision as well as original flight radio under "intercom" application.

Location: Graf-Bernadotte-Strasse 34 45133 Essen

The pilot in Command . . . . . .

. . . . is authentically licensed for aircraft in this category. He has many hundreds of hours of flight experience and also completed his acrobatic flight rating under aerobatic legend Walter Extra in the 1990s.

The flight area: Rio de Janeiro - gehört aufgrund der spektakulären Lage fraglos zu den schönsten Fluggebieten des Planeten.

Due to its spectacular location, Rio de Janeiro is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful flight areas on the planet.

The ocean, lagoons, bays, mountains, jungles, beaches, boulevards, daring bridge constructions as well as the down town skyline are located in a confined space. Hundreds of large scheduled airliners operate the Rio - Sao Paulo connection daily. The approach to the runway 02R of the domestic airport is considered a challenge of a special kind in pilot circles.

Shortly before landing, a 180 ° turn at a height of a few hundred feet according to visual flight procedures is required. You can literally look into the living room of the residents of the districts of Botafogo and Flamengo. You want to take the helm yourself or are interested in an authentic ILS approach on the main runway of Galeao International Airport? - No problem.

The Mission: Rio Patrol

It is not without reason that Rio is considered a real hotspot. Drug cartels constantly pose new challenges for the authorities in the twelve million metropolis. The syndicates withdraw to their bases in the confusing urban districts on the steep mountain slopes and try to avoid access to the Unidade de Policia Pacificadora "UPP". These rely on a fast, agile light aircraft, which is based at the domestic airport within walking distance of the city center. The air patrol demonstrates the strength of the police.

Your mental gain

As in a stunt show, you not only fly through street canyons but also through the brain of your fictional opponent. You show presence, attention and demonstrate that you always have the intentions of your opponent in view.

With crew resource management, you reduce communication to an optimum and convey information efficiently, even in adrenaline-fueled situations. The experience gained remains in your memory due to the impressive images and can later be activated.
