France – Exail is pleased to announce that European Aviation School (EAS), one of Spain's leading pilot training organizations based in Barcelona, has renewed its FMST A320 licenses, reinforcing its commitment to providing high-quality, airline-oriented pilot training.
For several years, EAS has successfully integrated the Flight Management System Trainer (FMST) into its Multi-Crew Cooperation (MCC) training program, enabling cadets to gain valuable hands-on experience with flight planning and FMS programming before entering the full-flight simulator.
The decision to renew the FMST licenses reflects the value the solution brings to EAS's training methodology and its positive impact on student preparation and simulator efficiency.
According to Javier Gámez, Safety Manager at European Aviation School: "We use the FMST application as part of our MCC training programme. It allows students to become familiar with flight planning and FMS programming before entering the flight simulator. During the course, students practice creating and programming flight plans in the FMST environment, helping them understand the workflow and logic of the FMS.
As a result, when they move to the simulator, they are already comfortable with the system and can program a flight quickly and efficiently. This reduces the time spent on basic FMS familiarisation in the simulator and allows students to focus on MCC objectives, operational procedures and crew coordination.
We have found the FMST to be a valuable training tool that improves student preparation and makes simulator sessions more effective."
By incorporating FMST into the training curriculum, EAS enables students to build confidence and proficiency with airline-standard flight management procedures before stepping into the simulator. This approach optimizes simulator time, accelerates learning, and allows instructors to focus on higher-value training objectives such as crew coordination, decision-making, and operational procedures.
For training organizations facing increasing pressure to maximize training efficiency while maintaining the highest standards, FMST provides a practical and cost-effective solution to enhance pilot readiness and improve overall training outcomes.
A Long-Term Partnership Supporting Pilot Excellence
The renewal of the FMST licenses highlights the continued collaboration between Exail and European Aviation School and demonstrates the growing recognition of desktop training tools as a key component of modern pilot training programs.
As airlines and training organizations continue to seek greater efficiency and operational readiness, Exail remains committed to delivering innovative training solutions that help prepare the next generation of professional pilots.
