Global Civil Aviation Flight Training and Simulation Market

Flight simulation entails the artificial recreation of flight that replicates the environment in which the aircraft functions, often employed to train pilots, inspect design details, performance evaluation, and many other research purposes. The global civil aviation flight training and simulation market is valued at US$ XX in 2017 and is expected to register a CAGR of XX% during the period 2017-2022 to reach an estimated value of US$ XX by 2022.

Technology

Civil aerospace simulation technologies are of two broad types - full flight simulation (FFS) and flight simulation training devices (FSTDs).

An FSTD simulates only the cockpit controls while an FFS replicates particular plane models, sometimes even offering up to all six degrees of freedom

Other detailed types of flight simulator technologies include Part Task Trainers (PTT), System Trainers, and Cockpit Procedure Trainers (CPT).

Market Dynamics

Despite the slowdown the aviation market is currently undergoing, passenger traffic and total aircraft units sold have been on a constant rise, warranting a need for skilled and talented pilots. Due to sheer demand and number of players out there, the market is highly competitive, with vendors relying heavily on advancement in product technology and aftermarket services. With factors such as these into play, it is clear that the market is expected to grow and deliver solely on innovation in design and functionality in upcoming models.

Major market constraints that have been underpinning the industry globally include crew shortage, lack of simulators for complex systems, regulation and new licensing techniques, and the growing adoption of game technology for simulations.

Market Segmentation

The Global Civil Aviation Flight Training and Simulation Market is segmented based on type into Full Flight Simulation, Flight Simulation Training Devices, Part Task Trainers, System Trainers, and Cockpit Procedure Trainers, of which the former two segments dominate in terms of higher market share. The market can also be segmented based on aircraft type into regional jets, narrow body/single aisle, and wide body aircrafts.

Geographical Analysis

Regionally, the market is segmented into North America, Asia-Pacific, Europe, Middle-East and Africa, and South America. At present, North America has the highest market share globally, majorly due to high aerospace research activity in the region and prevalence of related end-user industries. In terms of growth, Asia-Pacific is expected to gain significantly during the forecast period, owing to growing passenger-traffic and aircraft sales in the region.

Key players

Key players in the global civil aviation flight training and simulation market include CAE, L-3 Link, FSI, Rockwell Collins, AXIS Flight Training Systems, Frasca International, IndraSistemas, Sim Industries, and Havelsan among many others.
