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.

The “commercial aircraft” category under the platform segment to dominate the global flight simulator market for the next few years

The commercial aircraft category of the platform segment is anticipated to hold the leading position in the global flight simulator market from 2020 to 2026. The key factor driving the commercial aircraft segment of the market is the considerable hike in the global air passenger traffic. As this bulging air traffic fuels the demand for more commercial aircraft, it needs the organization of more training sections for the commercial pilots, which is one of the leading factors propelling the global flight simulator market.

The Asia Pacific market to lead the global flight simulator market during the study timeframe

The Asia Pacific flight simulator market growth is attributed to the wide adoption of UAVs and commercial aircraft for deliveries. Substantially rising per capita income and adoption of western lifestyle are flourishing the demand for air travel across the region, thereby propelling the flight simulator market.
