Mexican Flight School Expands Pilot Training Equipment with Airbus A320 Cockpit

Mexico – Italian flight simulation equipment manufacturer CPflight has completed the installation of an Airbus A320 cockpit simulator at Escuela de Vuelo Aeronáutica Vitar in Mexico. The addition expands the flight school's simulation-based training capabilities, providing students with a dedicated environment for Airbus A320 cockpit familiarisation, systems instruction and procedural training.

• CPflight confirmed the installation of one full-scale A320 cockpit in its October 29, 2026 announcement, with the manufacturer's team responsible for equipment design, production, delivery, assembly, configuration and functional testing at the school's facilities.
• The cockpit will support students in practising aircraft procedures, checklist execution, onboard systems management and operational scenarios through structured, repeatable simulator exercises.
• The installation expands CPflight's presence in the Latin American aviation training market, providing another application of its cockpit simulation technology within a professional flight training organisation.
• The A320 cockpit reproduces the aircraft's flight deck at a 1:1 scale, incorporating physical controls, panels and aircraft system interfaces. It uses CPflight's proprietary Plug&Fly integration technology, designed to connect the cockpit's hardware and simulation components.
