EASA has established a process for ‘FSTD Special Conditions development and assessment’ in line with the needs of industry to provide general guidance and a basis for the qualification of new technologies used in Flight Simulation Training Devices (FSTD).  

In addition, FSTD Special Conditions for the use of Virtual Reality (VR) combined with a motion platform with reduced envelope were assessed, prescribed and applied by EASA for the qualification of the first training devices.
