SimCom at 21

Gemini Sparkle

Key Takeaways:

  • Founded in 1989, SimCom established its business on a core philosophy of providing "value, personal, and friendly" flight training to compete with larger providers.
  • The company initially specialized in offering personalized training for owner-flown aircraft types not typically covered by competitors, starting with non-motion simulators.
  • SimCom successfully expanded its services over time, moving from non-motion platforms to developing and utilizing full-motion Level C and D simulators for a wide range of jets and large turboprops, even manufacturing its own simulators.
  • Despite significant growth and expansion into new aircraft programs and facilities, SimCom continues to prioritize highly skilled, understanding instructors and a tailored, friendly learning environment at a competitive price point.

I recently got the chance to spend a couple of weeks doing some training at SimCom‘s Lee Vista training center (one of two such SimCom facilities in Orlando alone), and I had a great time.

The great time was no coincidence: it’s part of SimCom’s business plan. No lie.
