Flight Simulation Faces Big Questions
⊲ Royal Aeronautical Society ⊳The Royal Aeronautical Society’s 2026 Flight Simulation Conference will examine changes reshaping aviation training and simulation. Topics include EASA’s new capability-based qualification approach, certification using simulation, AI, eye tracking and physics-informed neural networks. The programme also addresses simulation for autonomous aircraft, drones and AI pilots, alongside methods for improving aircrew training. More than 40 experts from regulators, manufacturers, airlines, defence, training organisations and research will present to a 120+ audience in London and online on 13-14 October.
◂ With airlines and military operators sharing the RAeS stage, flight simulation remains a rare discipline where civil and defence aviation still learn from each other. ▸
