A flight simulator is an imitated cockpit of an aircraft primarily used for flight training purposes. The flight simulator creates a counterfeit environment of flight operations starting from takeoff to landing. It is considered one of the finest forms of virtual reality. Through flight simulator, the pilots and crewmembers can get hands-on-experience of operating flights in a much safer and cost-effective manner. Likewise, the pilots are trained to handle the flight in different artificially generated complex situations.

The flight simulator has started gaining importance in commercial as well as the military sector from the last decade. Through the advanced virtual reality technologies, sophisticated computers, and visual effects, the manufacturers have succeeded in simulating the outside view from the cockpit. The key factors fueling the demand for flight simulators are the huge operational costs for conducting flights for training purposes and it is a safer & secure way of training the pilots without any loss of lives.
