Pilatus Aircraft has fitted two immersive visual display systems to its new PC-7 MKX Flight Training Devices in Stans, Switzerland. The systems were designed and integrated by project: syntropy, and the projectors have been deployed in both devices for professional flight training.
How the systems work
Each system combines a 4 m fibreglass SYNJETSIM dome with a five-channel 4K projection system, giving a 220° horizontal field of view and a vertical field of view from -42.5° to +90°, according to Norxe's account. The sources report ten Norxe P60 4K n-shift projectors in total across the two domes, five per dome. The projectors are equipped with Aechelon image-generation technology, and the solution includes automatic calibration and optical blend masks to create a continuous image across the dome.
Partners
- project: syntropy: systems integrator that designed and integrated the complete visual display solution.
- Norxe: supplier of the P60 projectors.
- Aechelon: provider of the image-generation technology.
The deployment was reported in October 2026 by the projector supplier and by trade and Swiss technology media.
