NEBEG x Thranda Design: Certified GA FSTDs at a Fraction of the Cost

NEBEG Solutions and Thranda Design are partnering to deliver low-cost, custom-built FSTDs for General Aviation training. Built on X-Plane 12 with Thranda's industry-leading aircraft models, assembled with simulator hardware from certified NEBEG Network suppliers, and certified out-of-the-box through our eQTG automation — aligned with EASA CS-FSTD(A).

NEBEG Solutions and Thranda Design are partnering to deliver low-cost, custom-built FSTDs for General Aviation training. Built on X-Plane 12 with Thranda's industry-leading aircraft models, assembled with simulator hardware from certified NEBEG Network suppliers, and certified out-of-the-box through our eQTG automation — aligned with EASA CS-FSTD(A).

What This Partnership Delivers

Three core pillars drive this partnership:

  • Aircraft Fidelity (Thranda Design): Industry-leading X-Plane 12 aircraft models. Accurate flight dynamics, systems, avionics, and cockpit behaviour — trusted across the X-Plane community.
  • Certified Hardware (NEBEG Network): Simulator parts — flight decks, controls, IOS, visuals — sourced from vetted NEBEG Network suppliers across DACH and the EU.
  • Built to Certify (NEBEG eQTG): Certification baked in from day one. eQTG automation cuts your EASA CS-FSTD(A) qualification timeline by 70–90%.

What You Get in Every FSTD

  • Purpose-Built for GA Training: SEP and MEP configurations for flight schools, aero clubs, and universities — built around real training syllabi.
  • X-Plane 12 Flight Physics: Next-gen aerodynamic engine with true-to-life stall, high-AOA, and control response behaviour.
  • Configurable Flight Decks: Layouts, stick controls, avionics stacks, and IOS screens tailored to your training goals.
  • Fast-Track Certification: Bundled eQTG automation gets you from build to MQTG in weeks, not months.

The Integrated Toolchain

Every NEBEG x Thranda FSTD follows one end-to-end process: Thranda aircraft model → NEBEG Network hardware → Integration & IOS setup → eQTG certification (EASA CS-FSTD(A)).

Why Flight Schools Choose NEBEG x Thranda

  • Low total cost of ownership — COTS aircraft models and modular hardware avoid bespoke development fees.
  • Vendor-independent hardware — NEBEG Network suppliers across DACH & EU, no single-source lock-in.
  • EASA CS-FSTD(A) aligned — qualification engineered in from day one via the eQTG toolchain.
  • Configurable to your syllabus — flight deck, IOS, avionics stack, and scenario library tailored to you.
  • 24/7 support & remote monitoring — predictive maintenance keeps the device earning revenue.

How a Project Runs

  • Scope & Quote: Aircraft type, target qualification level, location, timeline.
  • Build: Hardware from NEBEG Network, Thranda aircraft integration, IOS setup.
  • Certify: Automated eQTG test runs, MQTG docs, on-site authority visit.
  • Operate: 24/7 support, remote monitoring, annual compliance maintenance.
