Hungary – Simnest Aviation, one of the leading manufacturers of type-representative FNPT II MCC simulators, will expand its demo fleet in 2026 with the addition of a Simnest B737 MAX FNPT II MCC device. The new simulator will be operated by the company’s sister organization, Simnest Pilot Academy.

The company’s Budapest-based A320 FNPT II MCC simulators — located in the heart of Europe and easily accessible from any major European city — have long played a key role in the sales and qualification journey of Simnest’s 23 installed simulators.

“Purchasing an FNPT II MCC device is a significant investment in both value and scale, so it is essential for customers to personally test the product before making their decision.  Thanks to the high-fidelity environment and realistic flight characteristics of our Simnest A320 FNPT II MCC simulator, every professional who visits us for a demo flight leaves the cockpit with a satisfied smile. This is precisely why we believe it is important to offer a Simnest B737 MAX FNPT II MCC simulator alongside our A320 device,” explained Capt. Gyula Kühtreiber, CEO of Simnest Group.

The new simulator, arriving in the second half of 2026, will be operated by Simnest Pilot Academy, another member of the Simnest Group. Widely recognized across Europe for its APS MCC training, the academy will soon be able to welcome cadets aiming for careers at airlines operating Boeing fleets.

“The new Simnest B737 MAX FNPT II MCC simulator will not only open new pathways for cadets seeking a Boeing-focused career, but it will also allow Simnest Pilot Academy to expand its partnerships and collaborate with additional airlines committed to training the next generation of pilots,” added Capt. Kühtreiber.
