The ten market players in this report and a brief synopsis of their participation in the market are:
CAE Inc., Thales Group, L3Harris Technologies, FlightSafety International, Boeing, Airbus, Indra Sistemas, Frasca International, TRU Simulation + Training (Textron), and Collins Aerospace are among the ten major companies dominating the civil aviation flight training and simulation market. CAE is widely recognized as the market leader with the largest global network of civil aviation training centers and a dominant installed base of full-flight simulators, driving a significant share of simulator deployments and service contracts. Thales competes as a top-tier supplier of high-fidelity simulators and turnkey training systems across fixed-wing and rotorcraft segments, offering advanced visual systems and immersive training ecosystems that serve airlines and military customers alike. L3Harris (including L3 Link) provides a broad portfolio of flight trainers, mission systems trainers and maintenance training devices focused on both commercial and defense requirements, and is consistently cited alongside CAE and Thales as a market leader in market-share analyses.
FlightSafety International and Boeing play complementary roles as major training service providers and OEM-affiliated simulator developers, respectively; FlightSafety operates a large fleet of full-flight simulators and global training centers for business and commercial aviation while Boeing leverages aircraft OEM knowledge to supply type-specific FFS and integrated training solutions to airline customers. Airbus similarly offers OEM-backed training products and partnerships (including joint ventures) to deliver type-rated simulators and courseware for its family of aircraft, reinforcing OEM influence in simulator validation and academy programs. Indra Sistemas and Frasca International represent significant equipment and systems suppliers: Indra provides integrated FFS, ATC and training systems with deliveries to operators and airlines, while Frasca specializes in flight training devices and FTDs for general aviation and professional training organizations.
TRU Simulation + Training (Textron) and Collins Aerospace (Raytheon Technologies) round out the group as influential OEM and systems integrators focused on scalable, reconfigurable simulator hardware and software, instructor/operator stations, and the growing integration of VR, AI-driven analytics, and cloud-based debriefing tools into training ecosystems. TRU (Textron) brings a legacy of OEM-backed simulation tied to business and commercial aircraft types, and Collins supplies avionics-coupled training systems and full-motion platforms leveraged by airlines and training centers worldwide. Collectively these ten companies shape product innovation (FFS/FTD, VR/MR, motion cueing, visual systems), training delivery (global training centers, airline partnerships), and market consolidation trends, with CAE, L3Harris and Thales repeatedly identified in industry reports as controlling a substantial portion of global market share while other specialized and OEM-affiliated firms address niche and regional demand.
