What is "genfly"

GenFly is an advanced military aviation training device developed in the late twentieth century for the Royal Air Force, for use in training airframe mechanics and technicians, particularly in maintenance activities involving flying controls and aircraft hydraulics. The contract for a Generic Flying Controls Trainer was released in 1998 and was awarded to Pennant Training Systems Limited in 1999.

The device entered service in 2001 and was installed at RAF Cosford in the Airframe Training Squadron (AFTS) hangar. Four GenFly devices were delivered and all four were assigned tail numbers from the military aircraft register. The device was supplied with manuals that replicated the look and feel of Air Publications.
