Cirrus Aircraft & Alsim Establish Alliance

Cirrus Aircraft and Alsim Simulators have formed an alliance to provide Cirrus customers with an Alsim ALSR20 simulator, an exact replica of a new Cirrus SR20 G6, which was on display at the Cirrus CX 2022 conference.

The ALSR20 will be installed at the Cirrus Training Center in Knoxville, Tennessee.

Alsim launched the ALSR20 simulator in December 2020. The Flight Training Device (FTD) is Level 5 compliant with the latest aviation standards from EASA and the FAA to Transport Canada and the CAAC. The high-fidelity device contains the latest G6 specific interior cockpit and flight deck including a real Garmin GDU 1050A and GFC 700 Autopilot. The ALSR20 is equipped with a Garmin GMA 350C – All digital Audio Panel and a Garmin GCU 479 and can simulate the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS).

Alsim, over the coming months, will be adding the Cirrus SR22 and SR22T flight models to the ALSR20 simulator to help meet the training demand of Cirrus pilots and the Cirrus Training Centers.

At the same time, Cirrus is providing input into Alsim’s new streamlined SR-series Advanced Aviation Training Device (AATD), which is currently being developed at Alsim Headquarters in France. Like its larger simulator counterpart, it will contain elements such as real Garmin Perspective +, but will have a much smaller footprint, and be more affordable.
