TCab Tech has entered into a strategic partnership with China Simulation Sciences (CSS) to develop a comprehensive simulation and training ecosystem for its E20 eVTOL aircraft.

The partnership leverages the expertise of CSS, a prominent provider of aviation simulation and training systems, to focus on the technical and regulatory requirements of the emerging electric vertical takeoff and landing sector. A primary pillar of the collaboration is the development of high-fidelity engineering and flight training simulators specifically tailored to the E20. These systems are designed to accelerate design validation, refine pilot training protocols, and ensure the aircraft meets airworthiness readiness standards.

In addition to technical development, the companies are working to establish standardized training frameworks. These frameworks will align simulation-based training with formal airworthiness requirements to support scalable, safety-driven pathways for pilot qualification and certification.

The agreement also includes the creation of integrated deployment solutions. By delivering combined aircraft and training system packages, the partners aim to facilitate a smoother transition from aircraft delivery to active operation. This integrated approach is intended to provide particular support for international customers as they integrate the E20 into their respective markets.
