JAL Implements Airbus’ Immersive Training Device ‘Virtual Procedure Trainer’
Japan Airlines (JAL) has introduced Airbus’ computer-based immersive training device for the Airbus A350, known as the ‘Virtual Procedure Trainer’ (VPT).
The VPT offers a realistic environment for training on flight procedures and emergency scenarios within a Virtual Reality (VR) space, customized to the airline’s aircraft. It allows for interactive operations and provides the flexibility to conduct training anytime and anywhere, significantly reducing training costs and aircraft downtime for enhanced cost efficiency.
JAL has been conducting system training and practice through Airbus’ ‘MATe Suite (Mobile Airbus Training experience)’ and is now adopting this as an addition. It marks the first operation by an Airbus A350 operator. The contract period is for five years, with the first training course to include 12 pilots.
