Spatial, the world’s leading provider of cabin crew training simulators, has been selected by Lufthansa Aviation Training (LAT) to manufacture a world’s first B777X Cabin Emergency Evacuation Trainer (CEET).

Designed and built to meet LAT’s exact training requirements and international regulatory standards, the B777X CEET will enable cabin crew to be comprehensively trained in all safety and emergency procedures (SEPs) for this aircraft type including fire and smoke training, door and exit operation, secure cockpit procedures and emergency equipment usage.

The CEET will be fitted with a cutting edge audio-visual system providing forward and cabin views as well as virtual slide deployments at the operational doors encompassing a number of potential emergency scenarios and aircraft malfunctions.

Once built, the CEET will be shipped and installed at LAT’s largest training facility in Frankfurt.
