    This study presents the design and validation of a Sidestick Captain/First Officer (CPT/FO) prototype with an oleo-pneumatic centering system as an enhancement for the FSTD A320 flight simulator, originally equipped with a conventional mechanical spring system. The objective was to improve the fidelity and response precision of the control system to provide a more realistic and efficient flight simulation experience. The methodology involved mechanical and structural design using SolidWorks, material selection (A36 Steel for the structure and 304 Stainless Steel for the control lever), and validation through static and numerical analyses to ensure structural integrity and system performance. The static analysis confirmed that the components operate within safe limits, and the integration of the oleo-pneumatic system provided a more stable and controlled damping response, closely replicating the behavior of the Airbus A320 Sidestick. Compared to traditional mechanical spring, electromechanical shock absorbers and hydraulic damper systems, the proposed design offers a smoother and more precise response while maintaining simplicity, low maintenance, and costefficiency. This innovation not only enhances the performance of the FSTD A320 simulator but also represents a scalable solution for other flight simulation models, contributing to more effective pilot training and opening opportunities for future improvements through advanced dynamic analysis.
