Encyclopedia
AXIS Flight Training Systems GmbH supplies flight training equipment in compliance with all regulatory standards (EASA
, FAA),
ranging from Flat Panel Trainers to Full Flight Simulators
. The innovative modular design and the use of OEM
quality simulated aircraft
parts enhance simulator reliability, assure the highest fidelity for pilot training and help to keep down costs throughout the whole lifecycle.

by aviation experts with sophisticated soft- and hardware skills, well proven in the industry. This team of engineers and professional pilots decided to enter the market not in the usual way. Instead of building lower level training devices first and expanding the product range later on, AXIS's first design was already a level D Full Flight Simulator.
2005 Project start for the level D Full Flight Simulator with an Equipe collimated visual system and a Rexroth
hydraulic motion base.
2008 The first Training Device built by AXIS, the Fokker F70/100 Full Flight Simulator was qualified according to JAR STD regulations by Austro Control
and EASA
.
2009 Design of the New Generation Full Flight Simulator with 6-DOF electric motion base and a highly ergonomic Instructor Operation Station with upright TFT touch screens.
2010 The engineering and production departments moved to a new facility in Lebring. This increase in in manufacturing capacity enables the company to manufacture multiple training devices simultaneously. The relocation became necessary with the consecutive orders of two Full Flight Simulators and an accompanying order for a Flat Panel Trainer.

Fokker F100
The Fokker 100 is a medium size twin-turbofan airliner from the Fokker company. Low operational costs and almost no competition in the 100-seat short-range class made it a best seller when it was introduced in the late 1980s, but decayed due to increasing competition. Production ended in 1997 with...
