2026 Flight Simulator Engineering and Maintenance Conference (FSEMC) Simtek is excited to announce that our team will be attending the 2026 Flight Simulator Engineering and Maintenance Conference (FSEMC), taking place October 5–8, 2026, in Frankfurt, Germany. FSEMC is one of the flight simulation industry's key technical gatherings, bringing together simulator operators, airlines, training organizations, airframe manufacturers, training-device manufacturers, equipment supplie

The training requirement may change. The cockpit hardware strategy doesn’t have to. Flight training devices come in many forms. Simtek FTD - Level D One customer may need a cost-effective FTD for procedures and familiarization. Another may require a full-motion, high-fidelity simulator capable of supporting the most demanding training requirements. Those systems are very different. But that does not mean every avionics panel, display, control, and cockpit assembly has to be r

Simtek - H60 Flight Simulator The flight simulation industry is changing. In July 2026, the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) introduced its most significant update to Flight Simulation Training Device qualification in decades. The new framework introduces the FSTD Capability Signature (FCS) and places greater emphasis on matching simulator capabilities and fidelity to the actual training task being performed. For simulator manufacturers, training organizations, ai

When a prime contractor is building, upgrading, or sustaining an Airbus A320 full-flight simulator , the “avionics” inside that cockpit aren’t just hardware—they’re training-critical systems that must be durable, consistent, supportable, and integration-ready for the long haul. At Simtek , we’ve become a trusted partner for primes who need A320 simulator avionics that can withstand intense training cycles , stay stable across fleets, and remain supportable even when legacy c

In flight simulation, hardware isn’t just hardware—it’s the difference between a trainer that stays online and one that constantly fights downtime. Whether you’re building a new device, upgrading a legacy simulator, or sustaining a fleet over decades, you need cockpit components that are: built for high-cycle training use consistent across devices supportable long after typical electronics go obsolete backed by a supplier who responds fast when training schedules are at risk

Southwest Airlines - 737 When a prime contractor is building or upgrading a 737 full-flight simulator , the avionics inside the cockpit aren’t just “parts.” They’re training-critical components that must survive relentless use, stay consistent across devices, and be supportable for years—often decades. At Simtek , we’ve earned a reputation as the team primes call when they need 737 simulator avionics that hold up in the real world of flight training —where switches get cycled

When a simulator program is on the line, there are three hardware categories that can make—or break—training uptime: Instruments (gauges, indicators, standby units, and specialty controls) Displays (glass cockpit displays, ruggedized display solutions, and integrated visual interfaces) Panels (control panels, pedestal panels, overhead panels, and mission-specific assemblies) At Simtek , these aren’t side offerings. They’re what we do—every day. We supply simulated flight s

Simtek Simulated Displays When you’re building or sustaining a flight training device, the display system is one of the first things instructors and pilots notice—and one of the fastest ways a simulator can go down if the supply chain fails. Whether it’s a commercial airliner trainer or a military training device , you need display hardware that is: reliable under constant training cycles consistent across devices and fleets supportable long after “normal” electronics would
