A broad program of simulator purchase and modernization is under way at Dallas/Fort Worth, home of SimuFlite Training International. All 14 of the company's FAA Level C full flight simulators are having their older visual systems replaced with CAE Electronics Maxvue Plus daylight systems and BARCO/EIS monitor replacement projectors.

Upgrading of the Learjet 55 simulator was completed last month. By the first quarter of 2001, the Citation V, Citation III/VI, Westwind, Falcon 20, Hawker 700, Learjet 24/25, Gulfstream II/IIB, Citation II/SII, Falcon 10, Falcon 50, King Air, Learjet 35/36 and GIII simulators (in that order) will have been similarly modified.

Expansion of services at SimuFlite's new training center over the next two years will include new simulators for the GIV-SP, GV, Citation Ultra/Bravo and Excel.
