CAE 5000 Series Full Flight Simulator

The CAE 5000 Series is designed and certified to meet the Level D qualification standards set by aviation authorities like the FAA and EASA. This is the highest level of flight simulation certification, meaning pilots can use it to earn type ratings without ever stepping foot in the actual aircraft.

This simulator series is frequently configured to replicate regional jets and narrow-body commercial airliners, such as the Bombardier CRJ Series or the Airbus A320. The specific flight model and cockpit layout depend entirely on the software and hardware package purchased by the airline.

These advanced training devices are produced by CAE Inc., a prominent Canadian aerospace and defense company headquartered in Montreal. CAE is widely recognized as one of the leading manufacturers of civil aviation training equipment globally.

The simulator sits on a six-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) electric motion base that physically tilts and heaves to replicate the g-forces of flight. It is paired with a high-fidelity collimated visual display system that tricks a pilot's eyes into sensing actual movement and depth.
