STOVL / VTOL / STOL Aircraft
The GL-6000 GRYPHON


Unique Motion Profile
The GL-6000 GRYPHON is a ground-based, investigational flight simulator. This flight simulator is capable of replicating the unique motion characteristics of Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL), Short Takeoff and Landing (STOL), Short Takeoff and Vertical Landing (STOVL) and Hover, as well as others.

Multiple Aircrafts
The flight capabilities of this simulator support the training and research initiatives for multiple aircraft on the market today with a simple change to the high fidelity cockpit and flight profile. These aircraft include, but are not limited to, the MV-22, CV-22, F-35B, and BA609.

F-35B Flight Simulator
The GL-6000 GRYPHON F-35B flight simulator profile enables aircrew to train in the unique F-35B flight environment.

Research Flight Simulator
The GL-6000 GRYPHON research flight simulator provides the ideal simulator to explore the impact of the newest flight profiles, on both equipment and flight personnel. The GRYPHON research flight simulator allows for the expansion of flight test protocol and affords the ability to identify and address in-air concerns before they actually occur in live aircraft flight.
