Why book your assessment preparation with VA?

  • Last-minute bookings

    We understand that you probably won’t be given much advance warning of your simulator assessment. Our simulators operate 16 hours a day, 7 days a week, and we can normally make bookings at very short notice.

  • Proven track record

    Twenty years ago, we were the first company to make it possible for pilots to access professional simulators to prepare for an airline assessment. Since then, our team has helped over 1,500 pilots to secure airline jobs.

  • ATO standards

    VA is an Approved Training Organisation (ATO) regulated by both the UK CAA and EASA. We apply the same quality and standards to Simulator Assessment Preparation as we do for regulated training.

  • New Airbus and Boeing simulators

    We have invested in the latest-generation Airbus A320 and Boeing 737 FTD1 flight simulators, which we own and operate. Unlike some competitors, our simulators are genuine licensed Airbus and Boeing devices, certified by the UK CAA and EASA.

  • Experienced instructors

    All instructors conducting assessment preparation sessions hold formal instructional qualifications, and the number of sessions we run means we have unrivalled knowledge of most airline profiles.

  • You’re welcome

    If you arrive early for your session, you’re welcome to make yourself comfortable in our Training Centre, have a coffee and use our briefing rooms and cockpit mock-ups for self-study.
