Turkish Airlines Flight Academy has taken delivery of two new flight training devices — one for the Boeing 737 MAX, the other for the Airbus A320neo — after both passed factory acceptance testing at manufacturer FTD.aero. Each simulator uses an OEM flight-deck section built for its specific aircraft type and can reproduce a range of system malfunctions for training purposes. Both devices are designed with upgrade paths that anticipate EASA's incoming Flight Simulation Training Device Capability Signature framework, rather than being built solely to today's device categories.
The 737 MAX and A320neo devices passed factory acceptance testing and are built to align with EASA's upcoming training-device framework.
