ProSim Training Solutions

What ProSim Training Solutions does

ProSim Training Solutions B.V. is a Delft-based developer of professional aviation training simulation software founded in 2011 and operating as a subsidiary of Italian-listed engineering software group TXT e-solutions (TXT.MI) following a joint venture established at the end of 2022. The company builds high-fidelity simulation software for fixed-base training devices (FTDs), flight management system (FMS) trainers, and aircraft maintenance trainers, covering the Boeing 737 NG, 737 MAX, and Airbus A320 ceo/neo aircraft families. Its software replicates cockpit systems including FMS, CDU/MCDU, ECAM/EFIS, Mode Control Panel, and Primary Flight Display, and supports optional OEM data packages that enable type-specific certified training aligned with actual aircraft data.

The product portfolio comprises the ProSim737 Professional Simulator Suite (core FTD software), the ProSimA322 / ProSimB738 / ProSimB38M FMS Trainer family, the ProSim Maintenance Trainer for CDU BITE and LRU troubleshooting, and ViXR — an augmented-reality virtual instructor built on Pacelab WEAVR and Microsoft HoloLens 2 that automates procedural guidance for EBT/CBTA programs. ProSim serves airlines and approved training organisations, flight academies, maintenance organisations, academic and scientific institutions, training device manufacturers (TDMs) who integrate its software into hardware devices, and aircraft OEMs. The company operates from headquarters in Delft with regional offices in Nanjing, San Jose (Costa Rica), and Faro (Portugal), and reports 300+ professionally used fixed-base simulator installations globally.

ProSim makes money through a hybrid revenue model: one-time perpetual software licenses for FMS Trainers sold direct via its checkout.prosim.aero e-commerce store, licensing and royalty arrangements with TDM channel partners (Aerotask, Flight Deck Solutions, Vier-im-Pott) who resell ProSim-powered FTDs, recurring long-term software update agreements, and optional OEM data package subscriptions that enable type-specific certified training. Customer support is offered up to 24/7. The customer base spans enterprise airlines (Swiss, IndiGo, Air China, TUI, JAXA, among others), mid-market ATOs and flight academies across Europe, the Americas, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East, and academic institutions.

Revenue model

1. FMS Trainer Software Licenses: ProSim sells FMS Trainer software products (ProSimA322, ProSimB738, ProSimB38M) as direct purchases through the ProSim web store (checkout.prosim.aero). These are software licenses for flight management system training tools. Long-term update agreements are offered separately, as mentioned in customer references.
2. Fixed Base Training Device Software Licenses: ProSim software powers fixed-base training devices (FTDs) sold by Training Device Manufacturer (TDM) partners. The software is licensed to TDMs who integrate it into hardware devices (737 NG, 737 MAX, A320 ceo/neo). Devices may be used without certification, with generic certification (FAA AATD, EASA BITD, FNPT II MCC), or type-specific certification (FAA Level 4/5 FTD, EASA FNPT II MCC, FTD Level 1/2).
3. Software Updates and OEM Data Packages: Customers such as CEA Flight Solutions have invested in upgrading ProSim software and entered into long-term update agreements to take advantage of new developments. Optional OEM data packages are available for type-specific certified devices, enabling customers to perform type rating training with aircraft OEM data.

Broad incumbents

• FlightSafety International: FlightSafety International is a long-established aviation training organization with a large fleet of full-flight simulators and proprietary training devices across multiple aircraft types. While ProSim serves a complementary fixed-base niche, FlightSafety's breadth and OEM relationships make it the benchmark incumbent ProSim's software is evaluated against.
• CAE: CAE is the global leader in civil aviation training, operating the world's largest network of full-flight simulators and offering integrated training services. ProSim competes most directly with CAE's FTD and FFS software offerings but operates at a much smaller, niche scale focused on fixed-base training devices rather than the full simulator-and-services stack.
• TRU Simulation + Training: TRU Simulation + Training (part of Textron Aviation) manufactures full-flight simulators and training devices for commercial and business aviation, with proprietary simulation software. It overlaps directly with ProSim's Fixed Base Training Device software for Boeing and Airbus platforms.
• L3Harris Commercial Aviation Solutions: L3Harris (formerly L3 Technologies) is a major supplier of commercial aviation training systems, including full-flight simulators and integrated training services for commercial airlines. Its commercial aviation training business overlaps with ProSim's enterprise software offerings for Boeing and Airbus training devices.

Emerging players

• Simnest Aviation: Simnest Aviation is an emerging simulation software vendor focused on advanced flight training devices and VR/AR-enabled training tools. Its product overlap with ProSim's ViXR and FTD software places it as an emerging competitor in the fixed-base and immersive pilot training market.

Direct peers

• ELITE Simulation Solutions: ELITE Simulation Solutions manufactures advanced flight simulation training devices, including FNPT II MCC and AATD-certified systems with proprietary Airbus and Boeing software. ELITE is one of ProSim's closest direct competitors in the European flight academy and ATO segment for fixed-base and FMS training devices.
• Flight Deck Solutions: Flight Deck Solutions is a Training Device Manufacturer that integrates ProSim software into its fixed-base training devices and also offers competing simulation platforms. As a TDM partner, it is both a distribution channel and a direct competitor depending on configuration.
• Frasca International: Frasca International produces flight simulation training devices, FTDs, and FMS trainers used by airlines, flight schools, and universities. Like ProSim, Frasca focuses on fixed-base training devices and FMS-level training tools and is frequently evaluated in the same procurement processes by flight academies.
• Aerosim (Aerosim Technologies): Aerosim produces commercial aviation simulation software and training devices used by airlines and training centers. As a smaller software-focused peer, Aerosim competes in a similar niche to ProSim in FTD software for commercial aircraft platforms.
• Vier-im-Pott: Vier-im-Pott is a German Training Device Manufacturer that builds fixed-base simulators incorporating ProSim software, as referenced in customer cases such as Ansett Aviation Training. As a TDM partner it serves as both a distribution channel and an alternative to competing hardware integrators in the same niche.
