This advanced training device represents a major step forward in preparing the next generation of professional pilots at Andrews University. Designed to mirror real‑world airline operations, this simulator provides a realistic environment where students can strengthen crew communication, decision‑making and technical proficiency. More than a technological enhancement, this trainer strengthens our mission to seek knowledge, affirm faith and prepare graduates who will change the world through aviation. During the Dedication Service, we will prayerfully commit this training asset and the students who will learn within it to God’s guidance. Our hope is that this tool not only sharpens professional skill but also nurtures humility, service and a heart for ministry—qualities that will travel with our graduates to flight decks across North America and around the world. Schedule 3 p.m.—Open House Tour our facility, meet faculty and students, learn about our Programs of Excellence, and explore how flight training, aviation maintenance and mission aviation are integrated with a Christ‑centered educational approach. 4 p.m.—Dedication Service Join us for a time of reflection, prayer and thanksgiving as we present this higher‑learning tool to God and reaffirm our mission of preparing skilled, service‑focused aviation professionals.
