♦ Simulators
The Global Standard for Rear Crew Simulation
For more than a decade, Priority 1 Air Rescue has been at the forefront of rear crew simulation, developing Advanced Aircrew Mission Simulators (AAMS) that help organizations increase readiness, improve safety, and reduce reliance on costly flight hours.
Available as Government-Owned Contractor-Operated (GOCO) or Contractor-Owned Contractor-Operated (COCO) solutions, AAMS systems can be deployed anywhere in the world to establish enduring, in-house mission training capability.

Unlike traditional simulators, AAMS is part of a complete mission training ecosystem. Built by the same team that has trained thousands of aircrew members across military, public safety, SAR, and commercial operations, every simulator is informed by decades of operational experience, proven curriculum, and real-world mission requirements.
Combining advanced mixed-reality technology, real mission equipment, dynamic scenario generation, and performance-based learning, AAMS delivers one of the most realistic and effective rear crew training environments available today.
Recognized by aviation authorities and operators worldwide, AAMS has been integrated into approved training programs across multiple regulatory environments, helping organizations achieve the highest standards of proficiency, compliance, and operational readiness.
♦ Advanced Technology
Built for Mission Readiness
The AAMS combines advanced mixed-reality technology, real mission hardware, and immersive simulation to create one of the most realistic aircrew training environments available today.
High Fidelity
The P1AR AAMS is the most realistic rear crew training simulator on the market today, providing hyper-realistic training environments.
Mixed Reality Environment
Blends physical mission equipment with immersive virtual environments to replicate real-world operations.
Aircraft Configurability
Can be configured to replicate 20+ helicopter platforms, allowing crews to train on aircraft-specific procedures and workflows.
Real Mission Hardware
Uses actual hoist controls, communication systems, rescue equipment, and crew interfaces rather than game-style controllers.
Cable Physics
Our AAMS software utilizes cable physics models that can accurately reproduce spins, pendulums/oscillations, and cable entanglement with emergency shear capability.
Dynamic Mission Scenarios
Supports a virtually unlimited range of SAR, hoist, MEDEVAC, tactical, maritime, firefighting, and special mission profiles.
Aerial Gunnery
Our AAMS aerial gunnery software utilizes ballistic simulation designs that meet NABK standards while operating the M240, M134, GAU17, and HK417/SR25 weapon systems that can be positioned on any side of the cabin, including the tail ramp for participation of multiple students simultaneously.
Instructor Control Station
Enables instructors to modify weather, emergencies, aircraft malfunctions, and mission variables in real time.
Performance Analytics
Captures student actions, decision-making, communications, and proficiency metrics for objective evaluation and debriefing.
Regulatory Approved
Integrated into training programs recognized by major aviation authorities, allowing organizations to reduce live-flight training requirements
♦ Proven Training Outcomes
Train More
200+ hoist repetitions per trainee provide dramatically more practice opportunities than traditional live-flight training alone.
- 02
Fly Less
Reduce dependence on expensive flight hours while preserving aircraft availability for operational missions.
- 03
Train Safer
Practice emergency procedures, system failures, and high-risk scenarios that cannot be safely replicated in the aircraft.
- 04
Standardize Performance
Create a common training standard across crews, units, and locations to improve interoperability and mission execution.
- 05
Maximize Availability
With 99%+ operational availability, AAMS systems provide reliable, uninterrupted access to critical training.
♦ Multiple Acquisition Options
Whether your organization wants to establish an in-house training capability or leverage an existing P1AR training center, we offer flexible deployment models designed to maximize readiness while minimizing operational disruption.
A P1AR Training Program At Your Facility
For agencies seeking a permanent, onsite training capability, P1AR can deploy a complete training solution directly within your organization. Under a GOCO model, the simulator, curriculum, training systems, and supporting infrastructure are installed at your facility while P1AR personnel provide instruction, program management, and operational oversight.
Build a training capability on your footprint.
