    In this podcast, Matt West interviews Tyson Phillips from AT Systems about their revolutionary aviation safety product, the ATS Device.

    This incredible electronic training visor system enables immersive degraded visual environment (DVE) training and simulation. This includes variable scenario training and simulation of actual inadvertent instrument meteorological condition encounters (IIMC), whiteout and brownout conditions.

    The conversation spans multiple aviation topics, including the background of AT Systems, the importance of these types of safety products in the industry and the differences in spatial disorientation between fixed-wing and rotary-wing pilots.


    The conversation with Tyson focuses on the need for these types of training device in triggering realistic illusions and implementation of their low visibility flight training system. The talk includes the benefits of scenario-based training, organizations learning from accidents and the changing culture of organizations sharing their mistakes.
