Belgian Academy BAFA invests in an Alsim ALX

 ALSIM is pleased to announce the sale of an ALX (SEP/MEP/MJ) to BAFA (Ben Air Flight Academy), a flight school located in Antwerp, Belgium. The new simulator will be equipped with LPV/PBN. Alsim bought back 2 simulators from the competition and replaced them with the ALX.

Mr. Xavier de Rom, BAFA Safety/FSTD Manager, explains why the group selected ALSIM’s ALX, “We had the opportunity to fly the ALX at Requena. We really appreciated the flight models and flexible changes between the different aircraft configurations. The technologies in the aviation sector are continuously improving, we think the ALX offers the best opportunity to provide for up to date avionics, advanced training possibilities and is the best match to our existing aircraft fleet. We are in an ongoing process to improve the quality and efficiency of our flight training and we know the ALX will help us in achieving this goal.”
