Delta State University has chosen the ALSR20 simulator to support flight training in its growing Aviation Department. ALSIM ALSR20 has the latest Cirrus SR G6 specific interior cockpit and flight deck including a real Garmin GDU 1050A and GFC 700 Autopilot. It is further equipped with a Garmin GMA 350C – All digital Audio Panel and a Garmin GCU 479. It can also simulate the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System. The ALSR20 is compliant with the latest aviation standards from EASA and the FAA (FTD Level 5) to Transport Canada and the CAAC.

Garrett Gee, Manager of Flight Operations for Delta State University, commented: “Delta State University was looking for a Flight Training Device that is able to meet the needs of our growing aviation department.  Having just acquired 5 new Cirrus SR20-G6 aircraft, we needed something to help make the transition to these aircraft easier for our students.  We wanted something that was able to provide as realistic as possible training to our students, and the ALSR20 checked all of the boxes.  ALSIM also has a good reputation within the flight training industry and that was also important to us.  Additionally, having a recommendation from Cirrus on the quality of the ALSIM brand was a big plus.”

Jason Da Costa, Business Development and ALSIM Sales Manager, stated: “ALSIM is extremely proud to have been chosen as the flight training device manufacturer for Delta State University's advanced aviation educational program. Delta State University's recent acquisition of 5 new Cirrus SR20-G6 aircraft meant that they needed a premium solution that allowed for a seamless transition from the flight training device to the aircraft. ALSIM's ALSR20 flight training device fits their needs perfectly and allows Delta State University to continue delivering innovation and excellence in aviation training. With a flight training device manufacturer such as ALSIM, that shared vision continues.”

The Commercial Aviation Department is committed to delivering an advanced educational experience at the undergraduate and graduate levels, forging the path for upcoming aviation and aerospace leaders.

Through innovation, industry collaboration, and an emphasis on trends and engagements, they shape professionals who will not only excel today but also guide and lead the future of aviation and aerospace with unwavering competence.
