Axis Flight Simulation this week introduced its AX-D Flex platform to allow pilots to train to fly multiple aircraft types using the same hardware. The equipment consists of a core simulator structure with motion and visual display components that can be integrated with cockpit modules representing a variety of business jets and narrowbody airliners.

According to the Austrian company, the AX-D Flex supports Level D full flight simulator training approved for EASA and FAA pilot qualifications, as well as the requirements of other regulators. Changing out the cockpit modules in a "roll-on-roll-off" process takes up to two hours, according to Axis. It recommends that users plan courses to avoid having to make the swaps more than once each day with each simulator.
