Cirrus Aircraft has installed a second SF50 Vision Jet flight simulator at its Cirrus Aircraft Vision Center in Knoxville, Tennessee, the company announced on Tuesday. The simulator was built by Canada-based simulator manufacturer CAE.

The FAA-certified Level D Vision Jet simulator is intended for use in the Cirrus’ flight training program as well as to “to serve the company’s expansion plans.” Training activities at the Center include initial type rating and recurrent training for new and pre-owned aircraft owners. While it also provides training for the company’s SR-series, Knoxville is the only location that offers SF50 type ratings.
