    all round professionalism

    and project reliability

    At certain stages in thelife-cycle of a flight

    simulator, changes may be

    needed that involve

    Updating the system. When

    it happens, the work must

    be carried out on an

    efficient timescale, with

    the utmost care, to the

    highest standard. Quadrant

    has an outstanding

    reputation in this highly

    specialised area.

    Quadrant has the capability

    and experience to carry out

    Updates on any scale,

    anywhere in the world.

    We have demonstrated our

    ability to undertake the most

    demanding, full turnkey

    Update programmes.

    Every facet of the project

    from beginning to end can beassigned to Quadrant. We

    take complete control and

    your simulator could not be

    in safer or more expert

    hands. In addition, we offer a

    survey and assessment

    service should they be

    required.

    TCAS II

    Quadrant constantly monitor

    the international aviation

    industry to track systems

    which are becomingmandatory around the world.

    This enables us to react rapidly

    and meet new requirements

    for our customers. We were

    one of the first companies in

    the world to introduce a fully

    simulated Version 7 TCAS

    system (as shown below in

    our test harness.)

    R2000A Host EmulatorQuadrant can replace

    unreliable host computer

    hardware with products from

    its own range of emulators

    which are capable of running

    existing software unmodified.

    To date we have installed and

    integrated several R2000A

    emulators for both Military

    and Civil customers

    worldwide.

    All Quadrant technology

    additions and enhancements

    are designed to meet the key

    objectives of minimising

    integration and simulator

    downtime.

    Instructors Operating Station

    Quadrant's PC IOS is widely

    regarded in the simulationand training industry as one of

    the most powerful and

    effective available, providing

    comprehensive facilities and

    an unrivalled ease of use.

    Quadrant has considerable

    experience of replacing existing

    IOS's including the complex

    interface required with the

    simulator host computers. The

    PC IOS provides capability for

    the Instructor to plan, initiateand control training sessions

    and to monitor trainee pilot

    performance. The IOS also

    controls the selection of

    maintenance and diagnostics

    facilities on the simulator and

    displays the results. The IOS

    utilises Quadrant's extensive

    At Quadrant Systems, weknow the vital role ofexpert Maintenance inensuring that acustomer's flightsimulator system deliversoptimum performance ina trouble-free manner.

    We also know thatcustomers have widelydiffering Maintenance

    requirements, so we aregeared to providewhatever level of supportis needed. It can be acomprehensive andongoing Maintenancepackage. Alternatively, wecan supply highlyexperienced engineers on

    short or long termcontracts. During the start-up period for a new orrecently refurbishedsimulator, our Field ServiceEngineers can supplementMaintenance teams on atemporary basis.

    Disruption of simulatortraining schedules must beavoided at all costs and

    professional support fromQuadrant helps to ensurethis. Furthermore, we offerexcellent training coursesfor Maintenance personnel.

    Quest Flight TrainingLimited has been under

    contract since July 2000 for

    a PFI programme valued at

    over 60M from the UK

    Ministry of Defence for the

    provision of the E-3D

    Sentry Aircrew Training

    Service (SATS) at RAF

    Waddington in Lincolnshire

    for a minimum period of

    25 years with a potential

    extension to 30 years.

    Quest has been specifically

    set up for this programme

    and is a 50/50 joint venture

    company owned by Quadrant

    Group and Rockwell Collins

    Inc. The programme is being

    managed within the Defence

    Procurement Agency by the

    Flight Simulation and

    Synthetic Trainers (FsAST)

    Integrated Project Team.

    Quest delivered a major

    upgrade to the existing E-3D

    Dynamic Simulator at RAF

    Waddington in October 2001

    after which the full SATS

    Training Service commenced.

    "The build phase of the project was

    completed three months ahead of the

    Defence Procurement Agency's (DPA)

    schedule. The Training Service is now fully

    underway, with high performance

    measured and compliments recorded by

    the RAF. The E-3D project is estimated by

    the DPA to have saved the taxpayer 29%

    over the cost of a conventional

    procurement, as well as providing

    improved performance and quality levels"
