We were thrilled to be part of the installation team for a fully certified A320 simulator converted from OEM parts. Typically, we work on projects featuring simulator-specific components, so this was a unique experience for us. Taking genuine aircraft parts and adapting them for pure simulator use, followed by a certification process, was a fascinating challenge. The presence of real components truly enhanced the environment, bringing it closer to a Level D experience—minus the motion—than most builds.
The project took 16 months from start to finish, nearly double our usual timeline. However, we gained invaluable knowledge throughout the process, making it an overall great build.
