AOPA Australia is excited to announce the launch of our new General Aviation (GA) Virtual Reality (VR) Flight Simulation System at the Hunter Valley Airshow, 6th and 7th April 2019, and a chance to WIN your own $9,995 GA VR system!

The new GA VR Flight Simulation System is a powerful experiential engagement tool for new pilots of all ages, enabling them to try their hand at flying gliders, recreational aircraft types, certified general aviation, aerobatic and high-performance military jets.  The VR Flight Simulation System is designed to excite and captivate by immersing participants into an ultra realistic flight simulation environment, helping encourage stronger participation in general aviation.

Custom designed by AOPA Australia in Sydney, the new GA VR Flight Simulation System will be available to purchase online from 7th April 2019, with prices starting from $6,599 AUD, with a variety of configurations available.

AOPA Australia Executive Director Benjamin Morgan said, “Australia’s general aviation industry can now take advantage of class leasing VR technology that has previously only been available to the military and high-tech aerospace industries, at a fraction of the historical costs.

“Our new GA VR Flight Simulation System, designed by aircraft owners and pilots, is the perfect pilot engagement and educational resource.  GA VR participants will find themselves immersed into an ultra realistic simulated environment that provides a breathtaking visual representation, realistic weather dynamics and atmospherics, accurate aircraft physics and a high-fidelity sense of flying that must be experienced first hand to be believed.

“The opportunities that GA VR presents for aero clubs and flying schools are phenomenal, where it can help drive stronger interest in membership and flying, along with providing a powerful teaching and educational resource that can enhance human factors and flying training.

“I warmly invite the general aviation industry to join us at the Hunter Valley Airshow, where we will be launching our new GA VR system, April 6th and 7th.  Come strap yourself in, take the controls and experience the excitement that is GA VR.”
