Global Training Aviation Unveil the New Boeing B737NG Flight Simulator, Developed by Indra

 Global Training Aviation (GTA), a company associated with Indra and specialized in the provision of aviation pilot and cabin crew training services, has officially opened today its new state-of-the-art (Level D) B737 flight simulator, which is ready for training. The Boeing B737 is one of the best-selling commercial aircrafts worldwide, and it is widely used by top airlines.

The simulator has been developed by Indra, which holds a 35.07 percent stake in GTA and that may take control of GTA in the future.  

The opening ceremony of the new GTA simulator has been headed by Fernando Abril-Martorell, President of Indra, who carried out the inaugural flight with Fernando Gómez Pérez, president and founding partner of GTA. The simulator is located in the GTA facilities in Madrid, along with two other ATR model simulators (ATR 72-500 and ATR 72-600) also state-of-the-art Level D.

The Level D certification of the simulator, the highest score available, means that one hour of simulation on it is equal to one hour of real flight time for training purposes. The system replicates the behavior of the aircraft with complete realism.

On it, pilots can train to deal with situations impossible to replicate in the sky, such as engine failure or an emergency landing. They also practice landings at any airport in the world, in all kinds of weather conditions.
