A400M

Since 2015 GFD has been operating five different A400M simulators in Wunstorf on behalf of the German Armed Forces for training pilots and loadmasters as well as technical ground crew.

The two A400M Full Flight Simulators have a cockpit equipped with original components, original aircraft software and a motion system that simulates realistic aircraft movements. They are the only simulators to date in the German Air Force qualified under EASA Level D.

Specially trained GFD staff are responsible for maintaining and proving this qualification and the associated identical simulation of the flight behaviour and environment in daily operations.

In addition, EASA Part-FCL licensed Synthetic Flight Instructors (SFI) support the training starting with the theory up to the training in the various simulators.
