Nationwide Aviation is expanding its fleet with two AL100i simulators, strengthening its commitment to delivering advanced and realistic pilot training. The AL100i is an exact replica of the Piper Pilot 100i, the top selling trainer aircraft developed by Piper. The simulator is designed to FTD Level 5 standards, offering a full-size flight deck replica, a semi-enclosed instructor station, active control loading, and a specific flight model based on aircraft flight characteristics. 

The AL100i is equipped with an immersive visual system with three projectors, delivering an unmatched 210×55° field of view. Additionally, the simulator is equipped with the original G3X and GNX 375 manufactured by Garmin. This integration guarantees the same level of performance, features and ergonomics found in the actual aircraft, a world first for this avionics suite.

Trevor Hall, Owner and President of Nationwide Aviation commented: “We chose the ALSIM AL100i simulator for its advanced technology and realistic training environment matching our recently modernized Piper Warrior fleet, which will help our students progress faster and safer. Its reliability and versatility align well with our mission to offer top-tier aviation education with the best instruction and technology.”

Souleymane SARRÉ, Sales Manager at ALSIM, stated: “We are thrilled to launch our partnership with Nationwide Aviation, which has joined the expanding community of ALSIM owners in North America. We are honored to contribute to the elevation of Nationwide Aviation students and instructors’ experience and look forward to seeing the two brand-new AL100i simulators in operation very soon”.
