The reputation of ALSIM is well known in China. The quality and service proposed by ALSIM is the main reason for this purchase decision. We are pleased to start training with ALSIM and are looking forward to receiving and using the device for our daily training this September according to Mr WANG Hai Jia, vice president of Sichuan Longhao Pilot Training.

Mike Tonkin, ALSIM Global Business Developmen­t Director adds: “Alsim is very proud to include Sichuan Longhao Pilots Training Co to the Alsim family of clients and partners. We have spent some time with our partner PCAT to visit and discuss with the Longhao management team with the common objective that Longhao join the Alsim family. We look forward to many years of collaborat­ion and helping train the Chinese pilots of the future.” The device reproduces the Diamond specific interior cockpits and flight decks. Changing from the DA40 to the DA42 configurat­ion is quick and easy, achieved by swapping only the dashboard and center console. The simulator includes real Garmin G1000 NXI and GFC 700 Autopilot / Flight Director, the latest VFR-VS image generator and visual system with 210° screen and the instructor station designed for instructor comfort.
