The FTD features actual Garmin G1000 avionics, G700 autopilot, Frasca TruVision visual system with 220° x 58° spherical display, actual aircraft cockpit, Electrical control loading and comprehensive instructor's facility.

"Recently and with pride the Korean Aeronautical University (KAU) and the Korean Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA), qualified KAU’s newly installed Frasca C172S Flight Training Device (FTD) as the very first Korean Level Dah FTD. The CASA Level Dah has similar requirements to the FAA Level 6 FTD.
