Embraer and CAE to Expand Pilot Training
Program in Singapore
(30/08/23)
Embraer and CAE are expanding their
longstanding joint venture to include pilot and cabin crew
training for the Embraer E-Jet E2 family of commercial aircraft.
Embraer-CAE Training Services (ECTS) will
launch a new pilot training program and deploy an
E-Jet E2 full-flight simulator (FFS) at the Singapore-CAE Flight
Training Centre.
Singapore has been chosen as the first location
due to the growing number of E2 jets in the Asia Pacific region.
Training is scheduled to begin in December 2023
and will be gradually
expanded to other locations within CAE’s global network to
support aircraft deliveries.
“We are delighted
to build on our offering and introduce the E2 pilot training
program to support the growing number of APAC operators embracing
the latest generation of platforms,” said Johann Bordais,
President and CEO, Embraer Services & Support. “We are more than
ever committed to providing high-quality training programs
available in locations close to our E-Jets E2s’ operators.”
The E2 training program will feature CAE
7000XR Series FFS, including the
innovative CAE Tropos™ 6000XR visual system, as well as CAE XR
Series’ flight training devices (FTDs).
“Adding the E-Jets E2 platform to our existing
joint venture is a natural next step in the partnership CAE and
Embraer have built over the last 16 years,” said Michel Azar-Hmouda, Vice President, Commercial Aviation Training, CAE.
“Launching the new program in Singapore brings E2 training closer
to our APAC customers and ensures their pilots are ready to take
flight as E2 jets join their fleets.”
