Our Story
SimTuts started with a simple observation: flight simulators have become incredibly realistic, but learning to use them properly is still really hard. MSFS 2024 ships with study-level aircraft like the PMDG 737 and Fenix A320 that model every system in the real cockpit. YouTube tutorials and forum posts help, but they can't see your screen, answer your specific questions, or correct your mistakes in real time.
We built SimTuts to solve that — with practice tools you can use right in your browser. Our interactive A320 MCDU and Boeing 737 CDU trainers walk you through real procedures step by step with instant feedback, no simulator required. Approach plate quizzes, knowledge quizzes, a takeoff performance calculator, and a library of in-depth, fact-checked guides cover the rest — so you spend less time stuck on forums and more time flying.
Train in Your Browser
The core of SimTuts is a set of free, browser-based training tools: the A320 MCDU Trainer and Boeing 737 CDU Trainer teach flight management computer programming through guided scenarios, approach plate quizzes test you on real FAA and UK AIP charts, and knowledge quizzes cover everything from IFR procedures to DCS combat systems. The free tiers need no account; SimTuts Premium unlocks advanced scenarios, AI feedback, the performance calculator, and progress sync.
