The AMST device incorporates the latest technology to ensure the best possible customer training outcomes. The timely availability to deploy the simulator was essential to support our growth plans for Dubai and we are looking forward to working with the experienced team at AMST”.
Rainer Schluesselberger added: “At AMST, we are dedicated to advancing aviation training technology, always focusing on addressing our customers’ needs. We take great satisfaction in being able to quickly provide the A320 FFS to Ansett Aviation Training’s Dubai facility.
