We design and develop robust, reliable software for subsonic, supersonic, and hypersonic vehicles, both manned and unmanned, ensuring critical systems perform flawlessly.
We utilize advanced simulation techniques to mitigate risk and reduce costs in developmental flight programs, enabling thorough testing in a safe environment.
We collect and analyze critical data through sensor packages and data acquisition systems, providing valuable insights for system optimization and informed decision-making.
We seamlessly integrate hardware and software components for optimal performance, ensuring all systems work together harmoniously.
We provide expert support throughout the flight testing process, from planning to execution, to guarantee a smooth and successful testing phase.
We design, develop, and integrate advanced flight simulators (laptop, SIL/HIL, iron bird, full motion) for realistic and cost-effective training and testing.
We implement robust data acquisition, instrumentation, and telemetry systems for real-time monitoring and analysis, providing critical data for informed decision-making.
We provide expert software test automation services, ensuring high-quality and reliable software solutions.

The fixed-based fixed-wing variable stability platform is inspired by the F-16 VISTA aircraft. This is the only flying 5-DOF variable stability jet aircraft in the world. This aircraft includes direct lift flaps. This demonstration catalog is inspired by decades of experience, military standards, and variable stability pilot training at test pilot schools around the world. […]
The fixed-based fixed-wing variable stability platform is based on a Ryan Navion aircraft. This is the only flying 6-DOF variable stability aircraft in the world. This aircraft includes direct lift flaps and side force generators. This demonstration catalog is inspired by decades of experience, civilian standards, and variable stability pilot training in Calspan’s Learjet. Each […]
The motion-based rotary-wing variable stability platform is based on NTPS’ MBB B0-105 helicopter. This combines a high fidelity motion system with seating for a pilot and flight test engineer, a flight identified dynamics model of the actual helicopter, and a variety of VSS features custom programmed by flight level engineering. This demonstration catalog is inspired […]
We have three advanced VSS simulators: a motion-based rotary-wing platform, a fixed-based General Aviation (GA) fixed-wing platform, and a fixed-based high performance jet platform. Features common to all three simulators Each simulator includes a high fidelity visual system, a dynamics model of each respective aircraft, and a variety of VSS features custom programmed by flight […]
Discover how our Flight-Level Engineering solutions have driven success for clients.
This is what a variable stability flight simulator should be. This is the most impressive set of VSS helicopter demonstrations we have ever experienced.
Flight Level Engineering (FLE) provided variable stability test cards that were excellent and really helped with learning.
The interaction/teaching between the Flight Level Engineering (FLE) instructor staff and the students was excellent – the instructors did a great job both during the sims and teaching the theory.
The sims and instructors were outstanding and the students used the phrase, “a picture is worth 1,000 words”.
Our team’s unique combination of skills in flight controls, software development, and flight testing allows us to provide a holistic approach to your project. This means:
We specialize in real-time embedded flight software (safety critical or not), custom flight displays, and flight controls (including CLAWs).
Yes! We have A&P mechanics, avionics technicians, and mechanical engineers on staff. We do it all.
Yes! we have the perfect flight-test platforms for experimental hardware and software. Whether you built it and need testing, or you want us to design, build, and flight test, we can help wherever you need. Ask us about our one-of-a-kind flight capabilities and schedule a video or in-person tour.
Our partnerships, including with the National Test Pilot School, enhance our capabilities even further with access to rotorcraft, supersonic/hypersonic platforms, military-trained test pilots, and more. Whatever your project needs, we can get it in the air.
We primarily use C++ for embedded software and Matlab/Simulink for simulation, flight controls, and system modeling.
We also commonly use C and Python. We are interested in Rust projects as well.
