HTM Group and Entrol successfully conduct flight test campaign for H145 D-3

31. May 2022

After the preparations and the development of the Flight Test Instrumentation (FTI) for the helicopter type BK117 D-3 were already started in August 2021, the measuring flights could now be successfully completed within the scope of a flight test campaign.

This campaign has been part of the H145 FTD Level 3 simulator development by Entrol, a long-standing partner.
 
According to Luis Olarte, Entrol's CEO, "It became clear quite quickly that many of our customers would switch to the new five-blade model and that other operators would also rely on this aircraft in the future. The demand for a high-quality flight simulator was correspondingly high".

"We are therefore extremely pleased to have a reliable partner in the HTM Group, which not only has the necessary approvals and instrumentation, but also already has the H145 D-3 in its fleet," adds Olarte.
 
Andreas Schühle, Managing Director of the EASA Part 21J development operation and responsible for the business development of the entire HTM Group is pleased: "Such a project is always something special and we are all the more proud that the flight test campaign could be successfully completed. All our companies were involved: From our Part 21J development organization AAD, to the fitting of the FTI by Intercopter, to the flight test organization, the entire HTM Group was closely involved. We are already looking forward to test flying the finished simulator from our partner Entrol - we have been convinced of their quality for many years, not only through our own EC135 FNPT II."
