Following a landmark 2025 edition, the Military Flight Training Conference returns to Switzerland in 2026. In partnership with the Swiss Air Force and NATO Flight Training Europe, this event addresses urgent challenges in preparing aircrew for great power competition and contested multi-domain operations.

Explore what's ahead:

• Expanding Training Pipelines: Addressing critical pilot shortages across fixed-wing, rotary, and multi-engine platforms while modernising legacy systems
• Digital Transformation & Immersive Simulation: AI-driven adaptive learning, LVC environments, and data analytics optimising pilot development
• Human Performance Science: Neuroergonomics, cognitive load management, and biometric monitoring including EEG, HRV, and eye-tracking systems
• Human-Machine Teaming: Training for Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA), RPAS integration, and multi-platform command
• Multi-Domain Operations: Preparing crews for space-cyber-air integration, electromagnetic warfare, and operations in contested environments
• Alliance Interoperability: Harmonising training standards, data sovereignty, and collaborative training models across NATO and partner nations
• Industry-Military Collaboration: How primes and SMEs can integrate emerging technologies without disrupting operational pipelines

Join 500+ military commanders, training leaders, industry innovators, and researchers from 40+ nations. Confirmed participants include RAF, USAF, Italian Air Force, Royal Australian Air Force, Canadian Armed Forces, Spanish Air and Space Force, plus Pilatus, CAE, Leonardo, MIT Lincoln Laboratory, and RUSI.

Three days of keynotes, panels, and roundtables tackling critical challenges - from Gen Z learning to 5th/6th generation aircraft transition.
