Türkiye-based flight simulator manufacturer HAVELSAN is proud to announce that Turkish
Airlines has placed a follow-on order of another Boeing 737 MAX Full Flight Simulator
to be delivered in January 2026.

Under the agreement signed with HAVELSAN in 2018, Turkish Airlines originally planned
to procure a total of eleven training devices consisting of three A320neo/ceo, two
B737 MAX Full Flight Simulators (FFS) and six Flight Training Devices (FTD). As 
of today, Turkish Airlines successfully operates two B737 MAX, two A320neo/ceo simulators
and one B737NG, which is the first procured simulator, produced by HAVELSAN, all
certified to EASA Level D standards. Additionally, the delivery of the last A320neo/
CEO simulator, as part of the previous agreement, is scheduled for November 2025.
