LUSA acquires the Airliner and AL250 from Alsim
Both the AL250 with its engineering pack, and the Airliner whose setup can be changed, perfectly fit the needs of the Lund University School of Aviation in terms of both training and research.
The Airliner is a hybrid simulator that addresses large flight training programmes for advanced training, and the AL250 simulator addresses initial phase training needs.

Lund University School of Aviation (LUSA) in Sweden has purchased an Airliner and an AL250 simulator equipped with the engineering pack from Alsim.

The Airliner is a hybrid simulator (fly-by-wire and conventional control) manufactured to address large flight training programmes for advanced training such as MCC, APS MCC, crew resource management, jet aircraft handling and procedures. The versatile simulator is close to a variety of different single aisle aircraft, such as the B737 MAX, A320, A220, E190-E2 or the SSJ100.

The AL250 simulator addresses initial phase training needs (PPL, CPL, IR/ME) and is a SEP/MEP re-configurable simulator certified as an EASA FNPT II. In addition, it offers both classic and glass cockpit for each flight model at the simple flick of a switch. This device has been extremely well received since its creation; more than 100 of these have already been installed and are in successful operation worldwide.

The Alsim engineering pack empowers engineering students to be completely independent to design and test aircraft models on the Alsim AL250 simulator. Integrated within MATLAB and Simulink, it offers nearly 4,000 editable variables for endless possibilities.

Johan Bergström, accountable manager at Lund University School of Aviation, states: “We are looking forward to working together with the Alsim team for many years to come. Both the AL250 with its engineering pack and the Airliner with the possibility to change setup fit our needs perfectly in both training and research.”

Audrey Jeffroy, Alsim sales director, adds: “We are extremely happy and proud to welcome Lund University School of Aviation among our customers and would like to thank it for its confidence in our innovative solutions. The Airliner is a game changer and will play a significant role in the flight training of the students at LUSA. We look forward to seeing the first students flying in the sims.”
