Products & Solutions
Full Flight Simulator (FFS) Level D
EASA-certified Level D full motion flight simulator, representing the highest qualification tier for professional flight training. The system is designed to replicate the full flight envelope of the target aircraft, including motion, sound and visual cues, for airline and military pilot training.
XR Simulator (FTD Level 3)
A mixed-reality Flight Training Device that combines a fully haptic physical cockpit with mixed-reality visuals and a roll-on/roll-off modular architecture. The H145 D3 variant received EASA FTD Level 3 qualification from Germany's Federal Aviation Office in 2025 with zero findings, and was nominated for the Bavarian Innovation Award 2026. It is the first mixed-reality training device of its type to achieve full regulatory qualification upon delivery.
Maintenance Training Rig (MTR)
Full-scale replica of a specific helicopter airframe built for technician training on standard and special maintenance procedures, including engine replacement and emergency rotor blade folding. Reiser has delivered MTRs for the NH90, H225M and other platforms to German, French and Australian armed forces, and won a German Navy contract in December 2024 for an NH90 Sea Tiger MTR.
hoistAR
An augmented reality hoist handling trainer that integrates real rescue hoist equipment with AR technology and connects to full flight simulators for combined crew training. Used by helicopter emergency medical service operators and military rescue units for high-fidelity hoist operations practice without requiring an airborne aircraft.
Flight Training Device (FTD)
Qualified flight training devices for rotary-wing and fixed-wing aircraft, used for procedural and instrument training. Available in multiple certification levels and configurable for single-pilot and multi-crew coordination training.
simplAIR
A portable or compact flight training device targeting lower-cost procedural training requirements. Part of Reiser's range for operators who need qualified device training without a full motion system.
