Pan Am Flight Academy, an Acorn company, has announced the acquisition and installation of a state-of-the-art Boeing 767-300ER Level “D” full-flight simulator (FFS), further enhancing its wide-body training capacity. The simulator is now housed at the Academy's Axis Park Campus in Miami and is set to be ready for training by July 2025.
Equipped with GE engines, TCAS 7.0, EGPWS, and Upset Recovery Training (UPRT Dir 2) capabilities, the B767-300ER simulator is undergoing an upgrade with the RSI XT6 Image Generator, high-resolution Norxe P10 projectors, a new back projection screen, and a full mylar mirror replacement—delivering cutting-edge simulation technology and dependable performance.
With this addition, Pan Am will operate five Boeing 767 full-flight simulators in Miami, solidifying its status as one of the region's most comprehensive Boeing training centres.
“These technical upgrades further reinforce our commitment to quality, reliability, and operational excellence,” said Ed Wegel, CEO of Pan Am Flight Academy. “This is yet another example of how we continue to invest in supporting our customers' global B767 fleet and meeting their pilot training needs.”
The acquisition supports growing demand from international carriers and commercial operators seeking access to top-tier wide-body aircraft training, including type-rating, recurrent training and simulator leasing.
