The simulation software is embedded into a Level D full-motion flight simulator, allowing the FMS to interact dynamically with the virtual aerodynamics, weather, and air traffic control systems. Conclusion
Unlike older FMS units (e.g., Universal UNS-1), the CMA 9000 features:
In a simulator, instructors can inject sensor failures (e.g., GPS loss, dual FMS degradation) or sudden Air Traffic Control (ATC) reroutes. Pilots learn how the system behaves during downgrades without real-world consequences. 4. Advanced Mission Planning Practice
: Supports specialized missions such as Search and Rescue (SAR) patterns and tanker rendezvous. Core Features of the CMA 9000 FMS Simulator
Unlike standard commercial FMS simulators, advanced CMA-9000 simulators include military-specific sub-modes:
| Key | Function | |------|-----------| | DIR | Direct-to (immediate route to a fix) | | PROG | Progress page (distance, ETA, fuel) | | FPL | Flight plan page | | PERF | Performance (takeoff/landing speeds, thrust) | | DEP ARR | Departure / arrival procedures | | NAV | Radio navigation tuning (VOR/ILS) | | FIX | Fix info (bearing/distance from a point) | | CLR | Clear scratchpad or cancel entry | | ENT | Confirm data | | ← (Line Select Key) | Select a line on screen |
Accessing navigation data for airports, navaids, and waypoints.
