The Holleman-Niswonger Simulator Center is located at the Purdue Airport and serves students in the Professional Flight Program. It is a single-story building which contains thirteen total simulators, including three Cirrus SR20 simulators, one Phenom 100 simulator, and one CRJ-700 simulator. Each simulator has a nearby computer which records simulated flight, and a 12-foot-tall, hemispherical projection screen. All equipment in the simulators is accurate to 1/16 of an inch of the real planes' equipment.
