THE IMPACT OF COVID-19

COVID-19 has had a negative impact on the global aviation industry. During the epidemic, only a few countries allowed air travel. Due to the dramatic decline in air travel, most airlines have suspended flights. In addition to the decline in air travel, the epidemic has created a negative image for airlines, which are already on fire with large facilities to keep their vessels afloat. Revenue for airline passengers worldwide is expected to drop by almost 50%, according to the International Air Transport Association. Because airlines are heavily indebted to employers, they are now turning to the government for financial assistance in the form of loans, financial assistance, and tax exemptions to survive the epidemic. Airlines have also stopped hiring new pilots, which has led to a decline in the demand for aircraft models. Flight simulation training has been postponed by many flight simulation companies.

The market is divided into four types: fixed base simulators, flight mission simulators, full flight simulators, and others. The Full Flight Simulators segment is expected to have the largest market share because it accurately simulates the aircraft and its environment, providing high fidelity and reliability. They generate motion, sound, visuals, and all other aircraft operations to create a realistic training environment that ensures thorough pilot training.

The market is divided into Simulator Hardware, Simulation Software, and Services based on the Solution. Due to the rise in flight simulator maintenance costs and the rapid advancement of simulation technology and its applications, the services segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecasted period.

Flight simulators can be used on a variety of platforms, including military planes, commercial planes, unmanned aerial vehicles, helicopter simulators. During the forecast period, the commercial aircraft segment is expected to lead the flight simulator market. The increase in global air passenger traffic is propelling the aviation industry forward, resulting in increased demand for commercial aircraft deliveries. This increase in demand for new aircraft creates additional demand for commercial pilots, which contributes significantly to the growth of the flight simulator market.

As the airline industry continues to face a global shortage of certified pilots, the aviation industry has recently been rocked by a surge in demand for new pilots. Many airline carriers have been forced to reduce the number of flight schedules due to a pilot shortage, as the size of the aircraft fleet continues to grow globally, combined with the yearly increased growth rate of global air traffic passenger demand.

Since the research reports we provide play a crucial role in any company’s decision-making process, therefore we at SNS Insider always believe that we should choose the best method which gives us results closer to reality. This allows us to reach at a stage wherein we can provide our clients best and accurate investment to output ratio.

Each report that we prepare takes a timeframe of 350-400 business hours for production. Starting from the selection of titles through a couple of in-depth brain storming session to the final QC process before uploading our titles on our website we dedicate around 350 working hours. The titles are selected based on their current market cap and the foreseen CAGR and growth.

 

The 5 steps process:

Step 1: Secondary Research:

Secondary Research or Desk Research is as the name suggests is a research process wherein, we collect data through the readily available information. In this process we use various paid and unpaid databases which our team has access to and gather data through the same. This includes examining of listed companies’ annual reports, Journals, SEC filling etc. Apart from this our team has access to various associations across the globe across different industries. Lastly, we have exchange relationships with various university as well as individual libraries.

Secondary Research

Step 2: Primary Research

When we talk about primary research, it is a type of study in which the researchers collect relevant data samples directly, rather than relying on previously collected data.  This type of research is focused on gaining content specific facts that can be sued to solve specific problems. Since the collected data is fresh and first hand therefore it makes the study more accurate and genuine.

We at SNS Insider have divided Primary Research into 2 parts.

Part 1 wherein we interview the KOLs of major players as well as the upcoming ones across various geographic regions. This allows us to have their view over the market scenario and acts as an important tool to come closer to the accurate market numbers. As many as 45 paid and unpaid primary interviews are taken from both the demand and supply side of the industry to make sure we land at an accurate judgement and analysis of the market.

This step involves the triangulation of data wherein our team analyses the interview transcripts, online survey responses and observation of on filed participants. The below mentioned chart should give a better understanding of the part 1 of the primary interview.

Primary Research

Part 2: In this part of primary research the data collected via secondary research and the part 1 of the primary research is validated with the interviews from individual consultants and subject matter experts.

Consultants are those set of people who have at least 12 years of experience and expertise within the industry whereas Subject Matter Experts are those with at least 15 years of experience behind their back within the same space. The data with the help of two main processes i.e., FGDs (Focused Group Discussions) and IDs (Individual Discussions). This gives us a 3rd party nonbiased primary view of the market scenario making it a more dependable one while collation of the data pointers.

Step 3: Data Bank Validation

Once all the information is collected via primary and secondary sources, we run that information for data validation. At our intelligence centre our research heads track a lot of information related to the market which includes the quarterly reports, the daily stock prices, and other relevant information. Our data bank server gets updated every fortnight and that is how the information which we collected using our primary and secondary information is revalidated in real time.

Data Bank Validation

Step 4: QA/QC Process

After all the data collection and validation our team does a final level of quality check and quality assurance to get rid of any unwanted or undesired mistakes. This might include but not limited to getting rid of the any typos, duplication of numbers or missing of any important information. The people involved in this process include technical content writers, research heads and graphics people. Once this process is completed the title gets uploader on our platform for our clients to read it.

Step 5: Final QC/QA Process:

This is the last process and comes when the client has ordered the study. In this process a final QA/QC is done before the study is emailed to the client. Since we believe in giving our clients a good experience of our research studies, therefore, to make sure that we do not lack at our end in any way humanly possible we do a final round of quality check and then dispatch the study to the client.
