The method of equipping with training simulators for civil aviation personnel training is considered. Since not all issues of practical training can be solved by implementing a part of the educational program in the form of practical training in the specialized organization, the use of training aviation simulators can significantly reduce the cost of specialist training. The simulators presented at the market are expensive for education institutions with limited functionality, that is why one of the options is their independent production. It is proposed to reduce the cost of training simulators by using small-size microcontrollers, which are built into the device itself, and data exchange with the central computer over a wireless communication line.

To check this approach, a test setup in the form of a Tу-154М flight engineer panel consisting of more than five hundred elements was assembled. The operating time of the test setup was 1300 hours, during that period of time there was not a single failure in operation, all devices, lamps and controls worked out the set values without failures.

The offered variant of a method of manufacturing flight simulators is less expensive both financially and labor-consuming, which enables educational organizations to purchase it and allows to form necessary competences on operation of modern aviation technique among the future aviation specialists. In case such aviation simulator is designed and manufactured by students within the framework of project training, course works (projects) and graduate qualification works, the main goal — the highest level of practical mastering of aircraft equipment and systems — is achieved.

Keywords: development of training simulators, aviation devices, microcontroller, wireless devices, graduate competence.
