Training Center Certifies First A320 Standard

BAA Training France has become the first aviation training center worldwide to operate an Airbus A320 Full Flight Simulator (FFS) certified to the new Airbus Standard 2.2.1 and declared ready for training (RFT).

The simulator is owned by Transavia France, the Air France-KLM Group low-cost carrier, and is operated and maintained by BAA Training, now available for training to airlines and operators globally.

As airlines introduce newer A320neo aircraft, access to training devices aligned with the latest aircraft standards is becoming important for pilot readiness, operational consistency and safety. The latest Airbus standard aligns with recent A320neo developments, enabling pilots to train in an environment reflecting current airline operations. Capabilities include Air Traffic Services Unit with Future Air Navigation System C standard (ATSU FANS-C), an updated digital Radio Management Panel (RMP), and improved Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System (EGPWS) functionality.

This certification brings BAA Training's total certified FFSs to 17, enabling airlines to train crews on a simulator aligned with the latest A320neo configuration entering service.

BAA Training France offers training for Airbus A320neo, Boeing 737NG and Boeing 747-400, including dry/wet lease solutions and cabin crew training.
