Training Aircraft

The school has assembled a unique and diverse fleet of 28 aircraft with 16 jet trainers, three transonic fighters, a seaplane and several helicopters. Training types include the Hawker Hunter T.7, Aero Vodochody L-39 and L-29, Bombardier Challenger, Embraer Phenom, as well as MBB Bo 105M and Bell 206B3 helicopters, among others.

The L-39 Albatros fleet has been upgraded with full-colour touchscreen displays and hands on throttle and stick (HOTAS) controls. Simulation is heavily incorporated into all training programs, and the school employs virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (MR) to boost training effectiveness.

Simulators

ITPS puts the emphasis on technology. The school employs modern avionics, head-up display (HUD) technology, tactical datalink, live virtual constructive training (LVCT) and advanced simulation systems to enhance its flight test training programs. Simulators – including F-16C, F/A-18E, F-35, Boeing 787, AH-64D/E and AW139 units – are used throughout the test pilot and flight test engineer training programmes.

They facilitate instruction in electronic flight information and HUD systems evaluation, fly-by-wire flight control laws, autopilot and flight management systems assessment. ITPS has also contracted with CAE’s Toronto training centre to access a number of full-motion commercial aircraft simulators for test pilot school exercises.
