Istanbul Academy Adds Airbus A320 Training Simulator

ELITE Simulation Solutions has delivered an ELITE Airbus A320 FNPT II MCC APS simulator to Bluewings Flight Academy in Istanbul, Turkey.

The simulator is designed to prepare cadets and pilots for multi-crew airline operations. It replicates the Airbus A320 cockpit environment and operational philosophy and supports Multi-Crew Cooperation (MCC), Airline Pilot Standards (APS MCC), Crew Resource Management (CRM), IFR procedures, airline standard operating procedures and jet orientation training.

The installation includes OEM-style sidesticks, ECAM functionality, visual systems and an instructor operating station for creating airline training scenarios. The simulator architecture has been developed to support EASA FNPT II MCC APS qualification standards.

With the simulator, Bluewings Flight Academy students can develop technical skills, communication procedures, cockpit coordination, workload management and operational decision-making in a multi-crew airline environment.
