Old approach simulator?? anyone know who makes this?
 

i just acquired a old approach simulator (at least i think that is what i is.)from the small airport I work at, and need a manual or info on it. If anybody knows anything about it or used one in the past your help would be grateful. :)

oh yeah and i'm new to this forum. :)

Welcome, Zephri - I think you'll do better on this forum.

It looks like a desktop variant of a GAT simulator. Can't tell you much more, I'm afraid. Last remember seeing it advertised in magazines in the 70's, maybe 80's.

Be careful when you plug it in....
 

My AME used to have one of those in his office.
One day, after he signed my medical I asked him if it worked.
He replied...'I dunno, lets find out.'
When he pluged it into the electrical wall outlet, the 'machine' started emiting rather thick clouds of black smoke....sort of reminding me of the 707 I once flew.
After the fire department guys left, the walls needed repainting.:}

I think it's an ATC 610

I would agree with above, looks like one of their products
