I bought an Airbus flight experience for my dad. Highly recommend this to anyone who has an interest in aviation. The instructor "Paul" was great, he explained everything that was going to happen and had plenty of stories to tell as an experienced Airbus pilot. There is room for an additional two people in the simulator. We flew from Belfast to Glasgow with real time weather and few scenarios thrown in such as an engine fire and a traffic avoidance alert. Brilliant from start to finish.

Alphatech is a an excellent setup with a very realistic A320 simulator. Paul and his team are very professional and helpful and go above and beyond to help you with your needs. They are extremely accommodating when it comes to booking sessions. Their customer service is outstanding and quality of training is excellent. I would choose Alphatech everytime

I first came across AlphaTech just after it opened.
The CAA said that i may need a "medical flight" to get my medical back. I opted to visit Paul at AlphaTech who was very welcoming and agreed this could be done there, as the sim and instructors/examiners were available.
Paul really went out his way to help me, because of that i ended up getting my medical back and returned to flying.
I can honestly say that the simulator is absolutely fantastic and so realistic, much more so than some of the £10 million pounds FFS Level D iv been in...dont believe me? Try it and find out for yourself.
The quality of instructors and instruction is very very high, these include current airline pilots.
Thank you once again for everything Paul.

Fantastic experience. Highly professional and friendly approach!
My 14 year old daughter has aspirations to become a commercial pilot. We arranged a SIM experience to see if this was a realistic career plan. She is more committed than ever now! Thanks Paul for a very enlightening and informative experience.

The Sim Slot was very good indeed. The outlet from the cockpit was realistic and rhe information given by the instructor was very detailed and I would encourage anyone to book a trip.

Alpha Tech based in Newtownards have exceptional Airbus A320 training facilities . The Simulator on site is exactly the same as the operating Airbus A320's and is continually being upgraded in line with the Airbus A320. They are a totally professional company and cater for all the needs of both individuals who want to enjoy the real life experience in the cockpit of an Airbus to the fully trained pilot to provide everyone with a truly exceptional experience. The staff are totally professional and can tailor the training to each dividuals needs . They are dedicated in their approach to Airbus training and provide bespoke training both in the classroom and in the Simulator. I would highly recommend Alpha Tech to everyone both individuals and companies alike.as they are a truly dedicated and professional company.

Flight simming at home has made leaps and bounds over the years and we have all spent loads of time and money on it, but when it comes to actually flying the likes of an Airbus A320, the training given in the AlphaTech training facility is second to none. It is a fully working Airbus A320 fixed simulator but the huge difference is the time and effort put into learning the real SOPs and flows, how to read navigation charts, how to interpret weather, that's the part that makes all the difference to flying airliners. The instruction from Paul and all the team (everyone helps everyone else out) is amazing. Also, if this is something you're considering, after your initial 8 hour intensive training course, it's very affordable after that. The simulator itself is very well appointed with all the latest software that makes it feel very real.
I can't recommend it highly enough and I know my flying has improved dramatically since spending time there with the team. Thank you.

Fantastic training facility which is constantly evolving. Instruction is second to none and clear for all skill levels from flight simulation enthusiasts to ATPL holders. The A320 sim itself is highly accurate with complete simulation of all systems and a plethora of failures and non normal procedures which are useful for simulator assessment preparation for airlines.

All in all, exceptional company, fantastic people and amazing simulation platform

I had a brilliant experience at AlphaTech during my airline sim assessment preparation session. The instructors have an obvious wealth of experience within the industry and the A320 sim is of a very high standard and feels close to flying the real thing at a reasonable cost!

My instructor was kind enough to pick me up from the airport on my arrival and drop me back off after the session which I really appreciated. I would definitely come to AlphaTech again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for airline assessment training or A320 experience, etc.

I think the experience at AlphaTech is second to nothing barring only the real thing. The friendly, yet demanding, approach of the staff is the right environment for having both fun and learning vital information about flying an Airbus.
Having spent quite a large amount of time at AlphaTech, I would have no reservations recommending spending time in the AlphaTech simulator. At any level. Go for it, it is worth any penny you pay!

Great time in the Alpha Tech Simulator on an A320 Experience flight from Bristol to Belfast. Fantastic present for anyone remotely interested in flying. My wife and daughter joined us in the 'jump' seats and both also enjoyed the experience.
