Leonardo’s Training Academy in Philadelphia provides a comprehensive curriculum for pilots, flight engineers and maintenance technicians. Our customers receive quality, integrated helicopter simulation and training for initial, conversion and recurrent training.

Simulator and flight training includes briefing/debriefing, instructor demonstrations and student practice of flying skills and procedures. Flight training is conducted in Philadelphia with FAA and TCCA Level D approved AW139 Full Flight Simulator training and ground school classroom training.

Dedicated flight training aircraft supporting AW119 (what about AW119Ke, AW119Kx, and the TH119 models?)
Maintenance training devices: AW139 / AW119
AW139 Full Flight Simulators training courses to be introduced to support new commercial products including AW169 and AW609

Full Flight Simulators

Rotorsim, the joint venture equally owned by Leonardo Helicopers and CAE, currently operates in US through three different full flight simulators.

The Rotorism AW139 Full Flight Simulator (FFS) is based on the CAE Sim XXITM platform.

AW169 FFS and the new AW609 FFS are available on a platform deployed using a “Roll/on - Roll/off” (Ro-Ro) system.

Maintenance Training

We provide both theoretical and practical training on all supported models of aircraft available to the customer. Our current capability allows us to offer AW139 and AW119 practical training using our maintenance training devices. Additionally, maintenance bays on AW609 are ready for the first students that will maintain this unconventional aircraft.

Virtual-Enhanced Training Devices

To support pilot training courses, we have available AW139, AW169, and AW119 Virtual-Enhanced Training Devices. These allow the students to spend time procedurally familiarizing themselves with the cockpit prior to flight/simulator training events.

Flight training on aircraft

Our flight instructors are available to provide training in aircraft at Northeast Philadelphia Airport on our aircraft or at customer premises.
