EDM installs Air Baltic’s A220 extended door trainer

EDM has completed a project for Air Baltic’s A220 extended door trainer, which has been fully installed at its training facility in Riga, Latvia.

The company, which is a leading provider of training simulators to the civil aviation and defence sectors, was tasked by airBaltic to develop the new A220 extended door trainer in response to the airline acquiring its new Airbus A220 fleet.

This simulator will enable the airline to train their cabin crew and certify them to the new aircraft type. The trainer is fitted with key features to help simulate a number of scenarios that helps practice everyday functionality, but also for emergency situations.

As with all its products, EDM manufactures high-fidelity simulators that are robust and are of utmost quality to help serve our clients reliably.

The A220 extended door trainer for airBaltic has been manufactured to host a variety of features which have been tailored to suit their requirements and desired functionality.

Our team successfully concluded the installation of airBaltic’s A220 extended door trainer with its site acceptance test (SAT) in March 2020 in Riga, Latvia.

Reinis Lapiņš, crew training manager at Air Baltic, said: “Overall the EDM product is very good, it has high quality and controls correspond to the forces of the real aircraft. Instructor station and other features are much better if compared to other Door trainers that we were using before. We would definitely recommend EDM as the first choice for other customers.”
