ATR-600 Full-Flight Simulator in Singapore was awarded the Japanese Civil Aviation Authority certification. This certification enables the team to offer additional training capabilities to current and future Japanese customers, closer to their own operations. The process to obtain the initial certificate for Singapore’ ATR-600 FFS from the Japanese authorities took approximately 10 months. The dossier, including both administrative and technical data, has been thoroughly assessed, and 30 hours of simulator sessions were conducted, during which tests were performed to showcase the simulator’s capabilities.

Full Flight Simulators have become an indispensable tool in pilot training, providing an immersive experience that replicates actual flight conditions and aircraft behaviours. Motion and vibration effects, realistic visuals and sound effects are used to mimic actual flights, making it a cost-effective training solution – reducing the need for expensive flight hours on actual aircraft – and improving safety.

In a context of strong demand for pilots and technicians worldwide, this certification further illustrates the support we consistently seek to offer our customers, providing them with high-standard tailored training solutions using Competency-Based Training concepts.
