A320 FTD PRO
Certifiable up to FNPT II + APS MCC or FTD1
A320 FTD PRO – Training at OEM Standards
Maximum reliability. Minimum downtime.
The A320 FTD PRO by ACC sets a new benchmark in professional pilot training. 
✔ Genuine OEM Hardware

Over 80% of all cockpit components are original OEM parts – fully refurbished or reengineered to exact specs. No replicas. No compromises.
✔ True Physical Bus System

Unlike many simulators that rely on software emulation, the A320 FTD PRO uses a physically implemented data bus system. This ensures realistic signal flow, reduced latency, and maximum hardware integrity.
✔ Independent Display Units

Each DU operates as a standalone unit—physically and logically separated. This reflects real Flight Deck architecture and enables advanced failure training and redundancy simulation.
✔ Authentic Flight Control Forces

Sidestick, Tiller, and Pedals reproduce true control forces, fully calibrated for training realism. What the pilot feels here is what they’ll feel in the aircraft.
✔ 10-Year Warranty on Mechanics
Built to last: All mechanical systems—flight controls, throttle quadrant, switches—come with an industry-leading 10-year warranty.
✔ Market-Leading System Depth

No other fixed-base simulator on the market offers this level of system integration, feedback behavior, and fidelity—both visually and functionally.
Precision by Design
The cockpit is a true-to-scale replica of the Airbus A320 – with precise geometry and authentic dimensions. No compromises on overhead height, panel spacing, or layout. Everything is exactly where it should be, just like in the real aircraft.
The Flight Deck
The Flight Deck of the A320 FTD PRO delivers uncompromising realism—not only in appearance, but in precise spatial accuracy. It’s not just about using correctly dimensioned components; it’s about ensuring the exact distances and proportions between them match those of the real aircraft.
Further technical details are provided in the following sections.
Visual Fidelity That Matches Reality
Every visual element of the A320 FTD PRO’s cockpit has been engineered with meticulous attention to detail—because realism is not just about geometry, it's about perception.
From the moment you enter the flight deck, the visual authenticity of the panels stands out. The surfaces feature realistic textures, correct matte finishes, and color tones that precisely match Airbus specifications. No unnatural glare, no plastic-like shine—just the understated, professional look of a real aircraft cockpit.
Precision in Lighting & Readability
Panel backlighting has been carefully calibrated to provide optimal readability in all lighting conditions—whether in full daylight or low-light training scenarios. The brightness levels are adjustable and smoothly dimmable, just like in the actual A320, with crisp, evenly illuminated lettering that ensures operational clarity without eye strain.
All fonts, iconography, and labeling have been replicated with pixel-perfect accuracy, contributing to intuitive interaction and faster muscle memory development during training sessions.
High-Quality Materials and Detailing
The tactile experience is just as refined as the visual one. High-quality materials, durable coatings, and precisely machined knobs and switches convey a sense of solidity and purpose. There are no compromises in texture, weight, or haptics—because true-to-life training demands more than just functionality; it requires fidelity.
From the subtle color gradients on annunciator panels to the true-to-type legends and bezels, every detail is designed to uphold the highest standards of flight simulation


Tactile Precision for True Muscle Memory
In professional flight training, what you feel is just as important as what you see. That’s why the A320 FTD PRO is engineered to deliver uncompromising tactile fidelity—ensuring that every interaction supports the development of real-world muscle memory and operational confidence.
Authentic Human-Machine Interaction (HMI)
From the feel of rotary switches to the detents of the thrust levers, every tactile response is precisely aligned with Airbus standards. Buttons, knobs, and selectors offer the expected feedback and tension pilots rely on.
This isn't just about realism—it actively supports intuitive, muscle-memory-driven operation in time-critical scenarios.
Consistency That Builds Competence
Pilots who train in the A320 FTD PRO can rely on consistent feedback across all controls, reinforcing procedural memory and reducing cognitive load. Whether it's adjusting a heading knob, arming the autothrust, or toggling a guarded switch, the hand responds before the brain needs to think—just as it should in the aircraft.
Materials That Feel Right
All touchpoints use materials selected not only for durability, but also for authentic feel and thermal response—from the texture of the FCU knobs to the cool solidity of the Sidebase. Nothing feels hollow, loose, or artificial. Everything is engineered to feel right.



Industrial-Grade Electronics – Engineered for Reliability and Compliance
The A320 FTD PRO isn't just built to look and feel like a real cockpit—it’s also engineered to meet the
highest standards in electronic design and system architecture. All electrical systems are developed in accordance with the
European Machinery Directive, ensuring maximum operational safety, system integrity, and long-term maintainability.
Built to German Engineering Standards
Our electronic subsystems adhere strictly to DIN-compliant safety protocols and industrial best practices, reflecting the precision and robustness associated with German engineering. Wiring, power distribution, and control circuits are all professionally routed and labeled—no improvisation, no shortcuts.
Centralized Ethernet-Based Architecture
Gone are the days of fragmented signal paths and legacy interfaces. The A320 FTD PRO features a centralized, Ethernet-based communication backbone that links all major modules and control units. This results in:
- Faster and more reliable data exchange
- Reduced cabling complexity
- Simplified troubleshooting and maintenance
- Future-proof expandability
Hot-Plug Interfaces for Maximum Uptime
All peripheral interfaces are designed with hot-plug capability, allowing for the replacement or upgrade of components without shutting down the entire simulator. This modular approach drastically reduces downtime and provides operational flexibility, especially in high-throughput training environments.



Unmatched Support – Because Reliability Also Means Being There
While the A320 FTD PRO is built with robust OEM hardware and industrial-grade components that minimize the likelihood of technical issues, we believe true reliability includes what happens after delivery.
At ACC, support isn’t an afterthought – it’s a core part of our philosophy.
Always at Your Side
Our service team is readily available, whether it’s for technical assistance, troubleshooting, or remote diagnostics. In most cases, issues can be resolved quickly thanks to the system’s modular architecture and hot-plug interfaces—but should on-site support be needed, we respond swiftly and efficiently.
Long-Term Partnership
We don’t just build simulators—we build long-term partnerships. That includes:
- Regular software and firmware updates, to keep your system in sync with evolving operational standards.
- Optional upgrade paths for hardware enhancements or new feature integration.
- Proactive health checks and performance evaluations, ensuring continued compliance and peak performance.
Minimal Downtime, Maximum Confidence
Because of the high reliability of OEM components and our robust system design, unplanned downtime is rare. But in the rare case that an issue does arise, you can count on us to respond without delay—keeping your training schedule intact and your investment protected.
