Product features
A32 IPT has the same cockpit layout as Airbus A320 aircraft, and provides the panels, instruments and control system necessary for the multi-person crew to fly the aircraft;
Equipped with 180° high-definition loop view and audio simulation system, it can provide better flight immersion compared with traditional IPT;
The pilot tube and avionics system independently developed by China Imitation is adopted, with high cost performance, and the original Airbus data package can also be selected according to the needs;
The side bar is electrically controlled, which can truly restore the fly-by-wire handling characteristics of Airbus A320, and can also be upgraded to active side bar;
The landscape system has its own global airport, which receives customized airport customization, and the navigation database is updated according to ARINC cycle;
Complete simulation of Airbus A320 SOP training, functional implementation can reach the fifth-level trainer standard;
The operating interface of the instructor station is consistent with that of the traditional IPT and FTD five-level trainer, and there is no need for repeated learning;
Through the instructor station, more than 110 abnormal procedures and emergency procedures can be set up, such as aircraft system and weather, and customized according to requirements.

Product Function
Based on the above features, the CNFSimulator.A32 IPT can be used for:
Normal procedure training:
During ground preparation, the flight plan module and performance module can be completely input through MCDU, and the aircraft can be set from the cold cabin to the pre-taxiing state through the electrical door of each system in the cockpit. Manual taxiing is performed by hand wheel, and the aircraft can be taxied to the take-off runway with the help of the high-definition screen view system and the airport landscape. The whole flight stage from takeoff to descent, combined with the latest navigation database and flight management system, can realize the automatic flight managed by FMGC, can also realize the fly-by-wire flight through the side bar. The navigation database is loaded with the latest airport approach methods, supporting ILS, VOR, NDB and visual approaches. After landing, taxi to the parking place by hand wheel, and finally set the aircraft to disembark state;
The real visual system, combined with the topographic data and the latest navigation database, can bring better flight experience for airline training.
- Abnormal/emergency procedures
Multiple types of failures (no less than 110) can be set on the IOS, including:
(1) Failures of each sub-system: single or multiple faults of electrical, hydraulic, bleed air and other systems;
(2) Specific stage failures: engine failures after V1, air engine fire alarm, emergency descent, etc.;
(3) Inclement weather: low-visibility operation, slippery runway, etc.
In addition to standard failures, we can also customize relevant abnormal/emergency procedures according to customer requirements.

Product advantage
With the development of China's civil aviation scale, the number of aircraft fleet and pilots is increasing year by year, and safety is particularly important. Flight training, as the first safety gate of flight operation, is particularly critical. A quality flight trainer is based on the needs of the user. The CNFSimulator.A32 IPT can not only provide the user with regular IPT program training, coupled with the real cockpit environment, sound system and visual system, can provide the pilot with the necessary situational awareness in training, so that the training is closer to the flight. The latest navigation database and national airport views also provide more options for flight training. The professional design of CNFSimulator.A32 real cabin IPT aims to provide users with more in line with the needs of the flight itself. The high-quality training environment can also build a better bridge for ground training and simulator training, so that the pilot can adapt to the operation interface of the cockpit and the characteristics of the side rod, and improve the entry level of the simulator training. The research and development of the teacher station is based on the conventional interface operation. The teacher does not need to relearn the teacher station in the process of use, and can quickly get familiar with and operate the corresponding Settings through simple instructions.
Cases
China Southern Airlines Beijing Branch:
China Southern Airlines is the domestic carrier with the most planes, the most developed route network and the largest annual passenger volume. As of January 2022, China Southern Airlines has a fleet of more than 800 aircraft, including 339 Airbus A320 series aircraft. On July 1, 2022, Air China, China Eastern Airlines and China Southern Airlines signed orders with Airbus for a total of 292 A320NEO aircraft, of which 96 were purchased by China Southern.
The increasing fleet size aggravates the task of flight training. Under the condition that the training time of simulator and IPT is saturated, China Southern Airlines Beijing Branch adopts CNFSimulator.A32 real cabin IPT in the procurement for pilot SOP, CRM training and new route familiarity. It not only makes up for the shortage of the existing trainer, but also improves the pilot's program proficiency through this equipment.
A Civil aviation University in Southeast Asia:
A civil aviation university in Southeast Asia, mainly for the country to export civil aviation direction professionals. Under the flight technology college, can train a large number of civil aviation pilots for the country's airlines every year. When pilots transition from aviation school to airline company, there is a change of flying philosophy from small planes to big planes. In order to improve the overall teaching level of flight technology specialty, schools can reduce the overall gradient difference of pilot students after they enter airline company.
The school specially inspected and finally purchased the IPT equipment in CNFSimulator.A32 real cabin. After the equipment was put into use, the teaching quality of flight technology major in the school was greatly improved, and the training types were also broadened. A number of training programs suitable for flying cadets were developed. It has provided strong support for better serving the country's civil aviation system and continuously exporting civil aviation professionals.
