Reciprocal acceptance of flight simulator evaluations

Reciprocal acceptance of flight simulator evaluations

On the occasion of The Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) Flight Simulator Conference in London, England, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) has issued a statement strongly urging governments and Regulatory Authorities internationally to accept reciprocal simulator evaluations. The Association estimates implementation of this recommendation would save its member airlines up to million $10 US per annum.

The IATA statement from IATA Director General, Pierre J. Jeanniot, OC, was presented by Capt. Erik Reed Mohn of the SAS Flight Academy, representing IATA and the Flight Simulator Working Group. Major simulator manufacturers work alongside the international scheduled airlines in the IATA Working Group.
