Reducing the environmental footprint of commercial aviation to a manageable level, is a formidable challenge for the whole aeronautical community. In particular, new aircraft configurations could drastically reduce the environmental footprint. Training of engineers in Overall Aircraft Design (OAD) is, therefore, an essential step to be considered in order to take environmental issues into account from the preliminary design phase. ONERA and ISAE-SUPAERO have developed FAST-OAD (Future Aircraft Sizing Tool – Overall Aircraft Design), an open source platform for the analysis, sizing and optimization of aircraft, emphasizing on user-friendliness and modularity. The open source version provides a flexible and practical framework that allows researchers and industrial actors all around the world, to extend the entire aircraft design process to new challenging aircraft configurations, in-house models and higher fidelity approaches. In this contribution, the authors introduce, with a qualitative perspective, a training branch of FAST-OAD, to help trainers to build classes and tutorials.
