About This Training Center
The Berlin training center focuses on narrow-body aircraft operations, operating five Level D full flight simulators covering key short to medium-haul aircraft types. The facility features simulators for the Airbus A320 and A321, Boeing 737NG and 737 MAX, and the specialized De Havilland Canada Dash 8 Q400 turboprop aircraft.
This location serves as a regional training hub for European carriers operating these popular aircraft types, offering comprehensive training programs including initial type ratings, recurrent training, and specialized courses. The center provides pilot proficiency checks (PPC), operator proficiency checks (OPC), line-oriented flight training (LOFT), and upset prevention and recovery training (UPRT). Additionally, the facility supports multi-crew cooperation (MCC) training, instructor development courses, and CAT II/III approach training for advanced weather operations.
Berlin's central European location makes it highly accessible for pilots from across the continent, with Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER) providing excellent connectivity. The center's focus on narrow-body aircraft training makes it particularly valuable for low-cost carriers, regional airlines, and operators transitioning between Boeing and Airbus platforms.
