Incredibly realistic
Flight simulators
Lufthansa Full Flight Simulator
The rhythm of the gaps in the runways pavement, the acceleration during lift off and soft movements during flight maneuvers – you will feel every single detail. The concert of a perfectly calibrated motion system translating every input to authentic movement, high tech visuals and sound systems and a fully functional cockpit in which every button works like in the original plane make this possible. You really see, hear and feel every part of the flight in Level-D certified Full Flight Simulators.
Flight dates are available for information and booking up to six weeks in advance using our online calendar. Your turn is up once professional pilots conclude their training for the day and airlines don’t need the simulators in a timeslot.
Lufthansa Aviation Training
Why it's special
Every LAT flight simulator, and there are more than 45, has been certified by the Luftfahrt Bundesamt (LBA), Germany’s aviation authority, to JAR-FCL1A specifications and reached the highest level, Level-D. Only these simulators reach the specifications for airline pilot training. Every LAT Simulator is an exact duplicate of an existing plane within Lufthansa’s fleet and resembles this plane perfectly.
The Munich-based A320 Full Flight Simulator is an exact copy of Lufthansa’s Airbus A320 with the registration D-AIPA. The high quality and exact representation of real aviation flight is rigorously maintained and checked yearly by the LBA.
ProFlight offers the unique possibility to experience the perfect illusion of flight. Take your seat in one of more than 45 Full Flight Simulators used by Lufthansa Aviation Training and be the pilot where commercial airline pilots of many international airlines get their excellent training and testing. Make a gift now or book your personal flight.

Simulator Technology
The Motion System
Pilots experience aircraft movements very precisely. For a realistic flight simulation, both accelerations and G-forces are necessary. The original cockpit is mounted on a platform that is controlled hydraulically or electrically. To overcome technical limitations, additional simulation techniques are applied. For instance, the cockpit tilting backwards during takeoff simulates rapid acceleration, while tilting forwards during braking, which, combined with visual impressions, is perceived as deceleration. The perceived movements are always aligned with the visual simulation, ensuring that the felt movement matches the "view out of the window" every second.
Simulator Technology
The Visual System
Spatial orientation is crucial for flight safety. The cockpit crew must always know the position of obstacles, mountains, or hilly terrain around the airport, regardless of visibility conditions. The visual system provides more than 180 degrees of satellite-quality visibility, including all critical airport objects. This allows pilots to precisely practise approach procedures in the flight simulator. An example is the old Hong Kong airport, which required special approvals and training in the Full Flight Simulator.
