Simulator Components, Inc.

Simulator Components, Inc. is a Roseville, Minnesota company that supplies aircraft components to flight simulator operators and manufacturers around the world. It sells parts, replacement parts and repairs aimed at simulation use, and says it has years of experience supplying simulation companies globally.

Parts and replacement parts

The company sells aircraft panels and components for commercial flight simulators through an online shop. Where an aircraft part is not durable enough for a simulation environment, it says it can engineer a replacement part that is more durable than the OEM version.

Repairs

• Repair support on most aircraft panels used in commercial simulation
• Repairs only the reported fault, or a full overhaul if asked, so that equipment gets back to training
• The company states that it does not recertify repaired parts as airworthy, which avoids paying to correct every out-of-specification test on a unit
• Repair history includes Airbus A320 and A330 flight control units, ECAM and ATC panels, audio control panels, fire push buttons, oxygen masks, Boeing 737, 767 and 787 items and IPECO seats

Surplus purchasing

The company buys surplus avionics, boards, computers and motion components, for example from equipment going into teardown or left over from a simulator build.
