A major milestone achieved — Factory Acceptance Test successfully completed for Turkish Airlines Flight Academy!

 

Earlier this year, we shared an important step in our journey — two FTD.aero Airliner simulators heading to one of the most respected names in aviation training: Turkish Airlines Flight Academy (TAFA).

 

Today, we are proud to announce that both devices — the B73M and the A32N — have successfully passed their Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) at our facility in Poland!

 

The FAT is one of the most demanding stages of any simulator project. It is the process when every system, every function and every detail is verified against the highest technical, performance and fidelity standards — with the Customer's own experts present to validate the result.

 

Reaching this milestone carries special significance for us. Turkish Airlines Flight Academy is not only the leading aviation training organization in its region — it is a globally recognised name, backed by one of the world's largest and most respected Turkish Airlines.

 

When an academy of that standing chooses our simulators, it says something powerful: that world-class organizations highly trust FTD.aero to help shape the pilots of tomorrow and train them to the highest standards. It is also proof that our fully in-house engineering and manufacturing meet the expectations of a world leader in pilot training. That trust is something we do not take for granted, and earning it is exactly the kind of moment we work for.

 

Why are our Airliners the perfect choice for airlines?

 

- OEM flight deck section creating immersive, type-specific environment,
- OEM flight controls, including all linkages and mechanisms,
- Proprietary Control Loading System capable of simulating full manual reversion, jammed and restricted controls, runaway stabiliser, manual landing gear extension, and many more malfunctions,
- A wide range of OEM parts, including switches, oxygen masks and pilot seats,
- An upgradeable platform supporting the EASA FCS framework, with additional credits for type-specific features.

Our sincere thanks go to the entire TAFA team for their professionalism and partnership throughout this process. We greatly appreciate your feedback and all your suggestions to make our simulators even better as we chase perfection! And huge thanks to everyone at FTD.aero whose dedication made this result possible.

 

Now, on to installation in Türkiye. The best is yet to come!
