METS™ Model 1

Is the smallest version METS™ manufactured to date and extremely mobile due to its size and weight.  It accommodates two interchangeable emergency escape exits, two forward fixed emergency escape portals, and seats a maximum of five students at any one time.  The METS™ Model 1 can accommodate either a cabin or a cockpit configuration at any one time.

METS™ Model 3

Replicates small commercial helicopters and small fixed-wing aircraft having two or four seats.  The Model 3 includes a cockpit and can incorporate four interchangeable emergency exits.  It is also ideal for start-up training operations with larger markets. 

METS™ Model 5

Replicates small, medium, and longer commercial helicopters (i.e., Bell 206) and small fixed-wing aircraft having two or four seats and a center extension, making it 31” (78.74 cms) longer than the METS™ Model 3.  The Model 5 includes a cockpit and can incorporate four interchangeable emergency exits.  It is also ideal for start-up training operations with larger markets. 

METS™ Model 30

The size of a S-61 / Puma, Bell 212, UH-60, S-76, etc. and has eight interchangeable emergency exit panels.  The Model 30 is benchmarked as the international standard for use in delivering aircraft ditching training, especially to offshore industries.

METS™ Model 40

Accommodates eight interchangeable emergency escape exits.  Used to replicate large, wide-bodied helicopters (i.e., Super Puma, CH-53, S-61, EH-101, CH-47, NH-90, etc.) or smaller fixed-wing aircraft (i.e., the Hercules C-130, etc.).  Military services prefer the METS™ Model 40.
