Just more than 24 years ago, airline pilot Jérôme Binachon and computer engineer Jean-Paul Monnin had an idea to develop a flight training device that unites different aircraft types in one simulator. That effort produced Alsim’s ALX simulator, and today as the company has evolved, their AL250 and AL172 simulators are being chosen by flight schools worldwide. Alsim has also developed a dedicated Diamond DA42 simulator as well as their Alsim Airliner, which is a hybrid design based on the Airbus A320/Boeing B737 flight decks.
Flight Training Centers Add Alsim Simulators
Key Takeaways:
- Alsim develops a range of flight simulators, including models like the ALX, AL250, AL172 (Cessna 172 replica), and hybrid airliner simulators, often featuring actual avionics.
- Flight schools globally, such as Harford Air Services and Lanier Flight Center, are increasingly adopting Alsim's FAA-certified simulators for their realistic feel, immersive visual systems, and ability to replicate specific aircraft with precision.
- Alsim simulators provide significant cost savings for flight schools and students by reducing expenses associated with actual aircraft training (e.g., fuel, insurance, maintenance) while enhancing the training environment and offering a versatile, lower-cost learning tool.
