China Simulation Sciences Delivers Its First Level D Full Flight Simulator in Europe

Paris, France — December 8, 2025 — China Simulation Sciences Co., Ltd. (CSS) today announced the successful delivery of its Airbus A320 Level D Full Flight Simulator (FFS) to its strategic partner Simaero in Paris, France. The simulator has officially entered commercial operation at Simaero’s Paris CDG Training Center–Carole and successfully passed the Level D certification by the French Directorate General for Civil Aviation (DGAC) in November 2025.

This marks CSS’s first delivery of a Level D full flight simulator in Europe, and significantly, the first China-manufactured full flight simulator ever to enter the European market. The achievement stems from CSS’s sustained commitment to aligning with international certification standards. In June 2024, CSS obtained Level D qualification from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), establishing a comprehensive R&D and certification system for Level D simulators and laying a solid foundation for deeper integration into the global aviation training ecosystem.

Founded on the core philosophy of “Autonomous Software, Liberal Data, Unlimited Applications”, China Simulation Sciences is a leading Chinese manufacturer of full flight simulators under Juneyao Group, dedicated to delivering high-standard simulation solutions—including data-driven applications—for global flight training and industrial simulation markets.

The ceremony gathered distinguished representatives from China and France, including Minister and Counselor of the Chinese Embassy in France, the Secretary General of the  French-Chinese Chamber of Commerce, and executives from airlines, international simulation equipment suppliers, and global aviation training and regulatory organizations.

Mr. Guangping Ji, Chairman of China Simulation Sciences, stated:

“This delivery represents not only CSS’s first Level D FFS to enter the European market, but also the second CSS simulator received by Simaero—demonstrating the strong trust international customers place in high-end Chinese aviation technology. The simulator’s successful qualification by DGAC shows that CSS’s flight simulation capabilities have reached world-class standards. We look forward to further deepening Sino-French cooperation in aviation training and to providing global customers with more reliable and efficient training solutions.”

Simaero, headquartered in France, is a world-leading provider of pilot training on full-flight simulators and simulation engineering solutions, operating five training centers worldwide and multiple wholly owned and joint-venture training enterprises in China. As a key strategic partner of CSS, Simaero will leverage the newly delivered device to provide high-standard A320 type-rating training to European airlines and pilots.

Nicolas Mouté, Chief Executive Officer of Simaero, commented:

“The arrival of the Airbus A320 neo/ceo Level D Full Flight Simulator at our Paris CDG Training Center marks a significant milestone for Simaero and our partnership with China Simulation Sciences. This achievement reflects our shared commitment to delivering world-class training solutions. We are proud to be the first in Europe to operate a China-manufactured Level D simulator and look forward to continued collaboration with CSS that will drive innovation and excellence in aviation training.”

From contract signing to R&D and manufacturing, cross-border logistics, local installation, and ultimately DGAC regulatory qualification, the project exemplifies the exceptional execution capabilities and seamless collaboration between the two partners, setting a benchmark for efficient and trust-based cooperation in high-end aviation manufacturing and technical services between China and France.

Looking ahead, CSS will continue to drive innovation and customer-centric service as core strategic pillars, actively expanding the global footprint of advanced simulation training equipment to enhance civil aviation safety and make meaningful contributions to the global aviation training industry.
