AXIS Flight Simulation Showcases Simulator Redesign

Graz, Austria – Full-flight simulator (FFS) manufacturer AXIS Flight Simulation (AXIS) is unveiling the redesign of its Level D FFS product range. Developed in collaboration with award-winning design firm formquadrat, the new style reimagines the form and function of the simulator cabin to deliver a distinctive, contemporary look and modular structure that aligns with the evolving needs of operators and flight training organisations worldwide.

AXIS’s new modular and flexible design delivers lasting value to customers by accelerating setup, simplifying maintenance and enabling visual differentiation. Many non-aircraft specific components – such as the platform – can be pre-manufactured, enabling faster delivery in more compact packaging. The reconfigured structure improves access for maintenance teams, while the clean external layout creates additional branding opportunities for customers.

Visually, the simulator’s design delivers a distinctive, high-end appearance with balanced proportions, quality materials and striking surface contrasts. Clear, intuitive graphics support both user orientation and brand recognition, reinforcing AXIS’s identity in every interaction.

Christian Theuermann, member of the executive board, AXIS Flight Simulation, says “The redesign is not just about aesthetics, it’s about aligning our product identity with the precision, innovation and professionalism that AXIS stands for. The modular approach was created with our customers in mind, by making it easier than ever for them to maintain and service their simulators, while also supporting faster delivery times.”
