Visionary Training Resources (VTR)

Visionary Training Resources (VTR) – VR Flight Training Since 2015, FlightDeckToGo™, Tampa Florida

Core Services & Expertise

Visionary Training Resources (VTR) operates providing revolutionary virtual reality (VR) pilot training solutions with proprietary FlightDeckToGo™ platform. Founded by pilots with extensive safety and training backgrounds who understand importance of effective training in modern times. Creating simulator-ready pilots is what we do.

FlightDeckToGo™ uses proprietary Virtual Tiger® as portable, easy-to-use, realistic, and dimensionally correct training platform leveraging power of VR technology. Research has shown aviators trained with help of 3-D environments were able to maintain better situational awareness and improve skill performance. Can be used anywhere allowing pilots to gain proficiency in normal and non-normal procedures prior to arriving at training center. Using for initial training of flight deck orientation, flows, and procedures allows organizations to reduce simulator and instructor time, optimize real estate, increase pilot throughput and ultimately create better trained pilots.

VR studies demonstrated 83% faster training rate (University of Michigan Medical School in partnership with Cybernet Systems) and estimated five-year ROI of 300% (Intel Corporate Training Study) using VR-based courses while VTR’s internal analyses produced 50% reduction in procedural flow time in simulator. 100% portable-only cordless flight deck on market with no computer, no wires training anywhere at any time. WiFi only required for product updates and data review.

Proprietary Flight Decks: 100% proprietary not derived from consumer-grade games. Build each flight deck from ground up using decades of professional aviation experience providing most accurate flight decks available. Commitment to true-to-life precision produces flight deck geometry that is highly accurate ensuring superior learning and muscle memory. Current and upcoming flight decks include: A320, B737, B747, B757, B767, B777, E145, E175.

Advanced Features: Eye tracking visual task training (true visual eye tracking mapped to specific targets verifying pilots looking exactly where they need to look), Response Trainer (simulate critical maneuvers like rejected takeoffs/go-arounds with pause/slow down for guided learning), Flight deck familiarization (navigate highlighting panels with text descriptions and system diagrams), iPad deployment (all training content deployed on iPad), FMS Trainer (includes preflight pages, CPDLC, ACARS with ATIS, performance weight and balance), Multiplayer (interact and train with another pilot on crew coordination and CRM techniques with optional instructor oversight), Instructor-led classroom, Functional system trainer (interact with dynamic aircraft system schematics with fault injection/failure simulation), Exterior walkaround (customizable liveries, randomized abnormal conditions).
