EASA overhauls EU rules for flight simulation training devices, shifting to a more flexible qualification framework EASA has introduced a new regulatory framework for Flight Simulation Training Devices (FSTDs), marking the biggest evolution of simulation qualification in Europe in decades. The update replaces existing qualification approaches with a more flexible, “capability signature”-based method to reduce reliance on full-flight simulators, supported by an implementation programme.
