Infinity Sim Wings debuts AI-enabled Airbus A320 simulator
March 13, 2025
The first AI-enabled Airbus A320 simulator has been launched at Infinity Sim Wings’ training facility near Gatwick Airport in the UK.
AI-enabled simulators play a crucial role in pilot training by providing a safe, efficient and highly-realistic environment for trainees. Unlike traditional flight simulators, AI-powered systems can adapt dynamically to pilot actions creating realistic and unpredictable scenarios that improve decision-making and problem-solving skills. By exposing pilots to these scenarios in the early stages of their development training they can develop essential skills and knowledge, confidence and personalised training to improve weak areas.
According to Infinity Sim Wings partners Hani Nabeel and Ethan Steer, the company’s AI-enabled A320 simulator’s advanced visual system offers an unparalleled level of quality compared to conventional fixed-base simulators. Using multiple haptic transducers, it can deliver critical feedback corresponding to aircraft movements and states.
Hani Nabeel, told Aerospace Global News that “to do proper procedural training, particularly for Multi Crew Cooperation (MCC), real-life must be replicated as accurately as possible. Scenarios such as pilots sat at the gate at Heathrow with full air traffic control (ATC), lots of air traffic, dispatch and ground crew and cabin crew all add to the pressure to perform.”
The key advantages of AI-enabled technology include simulating seamless gate-to-gate air traffic control coverage, communication with ground crew and coordination with cabin crew. By providing exposure to a real-world environment, effective Crew Resource Management (CRM) can be evaluated against more robust measures, akin to real operations, to ensure the safety and efficiency of air operations.
“Currently, no training simulator provides this immersive realistic environment, hence it is hard to prepare for MCC and indeed the real world. This is what we have achieved with Infinity Sim Wings,” Nabel concluded.
