Ready for Take Off – Team Training in the Flight Simulator

High-Pressure Training for Effective Team Performance

Communication, collaboration, decision-making – trained under realistic conditions. The Airbus flight simulator from Vienna-based company AssekuRisk is no toy – it’s a precise training instrument. Teams from a wide range of industries – healthcare, business, manufacturing – experience firsthand how team dynamics shift under pressure, how communication succeeds (or fails), and why clearly defined roles are essential.

From Cockpit to Workplace

In aviation, simulation is a key instrument for quality assurance – and for good reason: it provides a safe environment to rehearse critical situations and systematically improve processes. In addition to technical procedures, the focus lies particularly on soft skills – communication, decision-making, and team behavior under stress. This very principle can be effectively transferred to other professional fields.
Whether in healthcare, project management, or emergency response – many industries are defined by complex operations, time pressure, and high safety demands. The flight simulator brings these dynamics to life: participants assume defined roles like pilot or co-pilot, face uncertainties and challenges – and must respond together. The simulation creates an exceptionally dense, realistic training environment – with clear insights for everyday professional practice.

On Board: SIMStation Go

The powerful AV system from SIMStation is fully integrated into the simulator and enables seamless recording from multiple perspectives. In addition, the training session is transmitted live to a separate control room, where experienced instructors guide the scenario and evaluate it using annotations and checklists.

Training & Real-Time Evaluation

The resulting recordings, including comments, form the basis for a professional video debriefing – transforming an immersive experience into a measurable learning format. The team analyzes its performance, communication patterns, and decisions made. Weaknesses and potential for improvement become visible – and can be addressed directly in the real-world work environment.

Conclusion: AV Simulation Meets Team Performance

A flight simulator for executives? Absolutely – and just as much for nurses, project teams, emergency units, or young professionals. Because those who master a critical flight phase together also develop better strategies, stronger communication, and more trust in their day-to-day work.

The integrated AV system makes team dynamics visible – and actionable. Multi-angle recordings not only enhance the training experience but also provide the ideal foundation for a structured and measurable learning process.
