The mobile hoist simulator hoistAR®

With the launch of hoistAR® in September 2023, DRF Luftrettung is the first provider in the world having designed a hoist simulator for Airbus aircraft. In comparison to other simulators, unique features are the connectivity with the Reiser Full Flight Simulator Level D, the trailer based mobility and the motion functionality. There is one central goal behind this innovation: to further increase safety for crews and patients in hoist operations.
