The LED Logo Light is also helpful in highlighting markings for charter aircraft, special missions such as AirMed, as well as commercial and cargo aircraft. It enhances safety by providing more visibility during taxi maneuvers as well as during takeoff and landing. It also helps ATC personnel identify an aircraft on the ground, and then supply directional instructions to other aircraft in proximity.
Replacing the 160-hour life halogen bulb, the PWI LED light offers 100,000 operational hours – saving 625 bulb replacements over the life of the LED. The 3-LED design also produces 1600 Lumens, which is 600 more than the 3,000K halogen bulb. The PWI LED requires only 11 watts while the bulb uses 50.4 watts and draws 4.5 times less amps, generating less than half the heat and preserving the floodlight lens.

BLISSAIR Opens State-of-the-art Flight Simulation Centre in Bocholt
German aviation company BLISSAIR opened a new flight simulation centre in the city of Bocholt near the Dutch border. The company can now offer professional type trainings, recurrent and safety trainings, as well as check flights for the Beechcraft King Air BE90/99/100/200 series on a Level D full-flight simulator from CAE.
The new equipment simulates a King Air B200 with integrated Pro Line 21 avionics. This makes it possible to realistically simulate critical flight situations, such as those caused by very violent turbulences or stalls, as well as emergency scenarios or system failures, without endangering human lives or aircraft.
