Cirrus Aircraft opened its first full motion flight simulator on October 25th, 2011 in Poznan, Poland. Cirrus' first European SIM Center will offer state-of-the-art simulation training for the Cirrus SR20 and SR22 aircraft with Cirrus Perspective by Garmin avionics. The company's flight simulator expansion now provides pilots throughout Europe a practical and safe method for logging hours toward certification or re-currency training in a Cirrus aircraft never before available.
In the Cirrus Aircraft SIM, pilots will have the opportunity to fly in a real Cirrus Perspective cockpit with all active functions and safety features, including a Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS) handle. The European SIM Center will allow pilots to take advantage of all of the innovative features such as the luxury automotive ergonomics, pilot-friendly avionics, and advanced safety features that Cirrus Aircraft is known for.
