Lufthansa Takes Delivery of Boeing 777-300ER Simulator

Lufthansa pilots can now train on a new Boeing 777-300ER simulator, provided by Lockheed Martin Commercial Flight Training (LMCFT) under a contract with Lufthansa Flight Training.

The Level D-certified full flight simulator was qualified by the German Luftfahrt-Bundesamt to European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) standards earlier this month and is now ready for training.

“We are very proud of the outcome of this project and the successful cooperation with the LMCFT team,” said Ulrich Lindner, Vice President / Head of Simulator Training Division for Lufthansa Flight Training. “We are especially pleased that starting today Lufthansa Cargo as our main customer on the new 777 simulator can now train their pilots at their own home base.”

The newest LMCFT product on the market, this Boeing 777 simulator features a newly developed, state-of-art instructor operating system; high fidelity aircraft system and avionics simulation; and a complete suite of scenarios to accommodate initial and recurrent training.
