New to the business aviation simulator market, NLX markets a wide range of training systems and technical services for many military and commercial platforms. These include the U.S. Navy’s P-3C Visual System Modifications and the Black Hawk Flight Simulator for the U.S. National Guard, in addition to the Bombardier Challenger 300 simulator.
“NLX has provided us with support during the development and certification of our Challenger 300 FAA Level D simulator and associated FTD, said Hank Blasiak, general manager of Bombardier Customer Training Services.
