EJECTION SEAT TRAINING

Pilots will experience the urgency in making the critical decision of when to pull the ejection handle and how to promptly position themselves properly before ejecting. This is an ideal environment for pilots to hone their skills for the most challenging aspect of aircraft
ejection – the decision to eject.

Decision Making
The F.A.T.A. Ejection Seat Trainer (EST) provides flight simulation scenarios of in-flight emergencies, demanding pilots’ real-time decision to continue or abort flying.
Video Recording
Cameras placed at different angles, provide high quality recordings of each individual trainees’ training. An optional high speed camera is also available for capturing images in slow motion.

Safety Features
Key safety features include pilot posture sensors, multi-layered physical and software safety interlocks, catapult brakes and safety barriers.
