Frasca International is evidently a family business. All the members of its Executive Team are family members, even Sales Director Joel Prichard, who is Rudy Frasca’s son-in-law. This aviation dynasty works well with Rudy Frasca’s business philosophy. John Frasca, Rudy Frasca’s son and current President and CEO, shared that one of his father’s philosophies is to trust people. Who would be better to trust than your own family members? The enterprise’s longevity can be well contributed to the consistent quality of its products, which is another testament to the legacy that Rudy Frasca has passed on to his children.
One of Frasca International’s achievements is the development of TruVision Global, which is a system of image generators that provides the pilot with a highly detailed visual of “10,000 runways, coastlines, representative terrain, rivers, roads, etc.” Even weather effects and celestial bodies can be viewed in high resolution. TruVision Global was created in a way that Frasca products that were developed prior to TruVision Global can still integrate it as an upgrade to the equipment.
Frasca International is not only well-known among aviation specialists. In 2013, Parkland College honored Rudy Frasca as the Entrepreneur of the Year. According to banker-economist Ed Scharlau, Frasca International provided 2,500 flight training equipment to more than 70 countries. Since Frasca’s flight simulation products are highly sought by aviation companies, Frasca International consequently brings around 400-500 visitors in Champaign-Urbana, where Frasca International is based.
As long as the Frasca family lives, Frasca International will uphold its integrity and reputation as the undisputable leader of flight simulation products.
