Loft Dynamics

Loft Dynamics, formerly VRM Switzerland from 2016 until December 2022, is a Swiss aviation simulation company, based in Dübendorf, a suburb of Zurich.

In February 2024, the company opened its North American headquarters and virtual reality (VR) flight simulator training centre at Santa Monica Airport, in California.

The company plans on launching flight simulators in South America, Europe, the Persian Gulf, and Australia and is working with several global regulatory organizations.

[5] In June 2024, the company received regulatory approval from EASA for a VR helicopter external sling load (HESLO) training feature, the first of its kind.

Two Loft Dynamics simulators were installed at the FAA’s William J. Hughes Technical Center in New Jersey, where they are being used to work toward the safety and efficiency goals of the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen).

In February 2024, the company announced a partnership with the Los Angeles Police Department Air Support Division, which purchased an Airbus H125 simulator to train its pilots.

Marshall University uses Loft Dynamics simulators to teach a curriculum that helps pilots develop skills such as night flying, confined area takeoffs and landings, and flight in dangerous conditions.

[32] Loft Dynamics uses state-of-the-art virtual reality technology,[33] employing cloud-based software to enable pilots of all skill levels[1] to practice complex or dangerous flight maneuvers and undergo realistic training for missions, and potentially landmarks all across the world.
