About the firm

Since 1982, Advanced Rotorcraft Technology Inc has supported engineering analysis, modeling, and real-time simulation for rotorcraft, helicopters, and other air vehicles. It provides expert services in aerodynamics, controls, structures, propulsion, and handling qualities. The practice has developed two major comprehensive analysis and simulation tools used throughout the aerospace industry: FLIGHTLAB and the Rotorcraft Comprehensive Analysis System (RCAS), the latter developed under the guidance of the U.S. Army's Aviation Development Directorate (ADD). Advanced Rotorcraft Technology Inc continues to enhance flight simulation capabilities through research and development of advanced rotorcraft technologies.
