The Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex at Robins Air Force Base, Georgia, has partnered with F3 Solutions to develop a virtual reality paint simulator for training painters in the proper techniques of painting large and small aircraft.
“We have developed a paint training simulator to enhance our current workforce to help them to develop more consistent skills,” said Todd Lavender, 558th Aircraft Maintenance Support Squadron process engineer and corrosion control process manager. “Hopefully, this will make them better painters or help us to identify when they are having a problem with any part of the paint process so they can address that while they are painting an aircraft rather than have them rework that area the next day because of paint defects.”
