The University of North Dakota signs again for an ALSIM Airliner simulator

Wednesday, Jul 24th 2024 – Le Loroux-Bottereau, France

ALSIM is extremely proud to announce that the University of North Dakota (UND) has reaffirmed its trust in ALSIM, by purchasing their second Airliner simulator. Two years after their first acquisition, and convinced by the simulator’s reliability, UND will now count two Airliner on its simulators’ fleet.

“After two years of solid dispatch reliability and customer support, UND Aerospace is excited to double down with ALSIM on their option for a second Airliner device. The students really enjoy the realism of the simulator. We have had several alumni captains from major airlines fly the Airliner and they too appreciate the fidelity and smoothness of the controls. The acquisition cost compared to others also helps support affordable training in a time that we are experiencing historical increases.”

The AIRLINER is a hybrid simulator (Fly-by-wire and conventional control) manufactured by ALSIM to address large flight training programs for advanced training such as Multi Crew Cooperation, Crew Resource Management, Jet Aircraft Handling and Procedures. The versatile simulator is close to a variety of different single aisle aircraft, such as the B737MAX, A320, A220, E190-E2 or the SSJ100. Its generic flight model is based on the same requirements as Full Flight Simulators Level D and provides the latest technology available in modern aircraft with similar automation and flight management systems.

Chad Martin, Fleet Manager at UND Aerospace Foundation, states: “After two years of solid dispatch reliability and customer support, UND Aerospace is excited to double down with ALSIM on their option for a second Airliner device.

Jason Da Costa, Business Development and ALSIM Sales Manager, adds: “ALSIM is extremely proud to once again provide UND with their Airliner device. The flexibility of the Airliner to switch between different training philosophies allows for exceptional versatility when applied to learning environments. UND has a world-renowned aerospace program with a mission statement that aligns perfectly with ALSIM’s desire to deliver the highest quality flight training devices and education. We would like to thank them for their confidence.”
