Flight Training Devices for the Next Millennium
A 30+ Year Tradition of Quality

While building a reputation of value and reliability, AST has delivered hundreds of AST 300s on five continents. We carefully constructed each FTD one unit at a time. It was the preferred Flight Training Device for thousands of flight instructors and students. This line was later expanded into the HAWK series and then into the Universal AST3000 series and AST4000 series Glass cockpits. AST now offers custom, cockpit-specific simulators such as King Airs 200 through 1900 series Aircraft, Cessna Citation and CRJ Jet Aircraft
