CAE Expands Training Capacity in Europe

CAE has expanded its training capacity in Europe to support the growing training needs of its airline customers, including Norwegian Airlines, BA CityFlyer, Iberia and Air Europa.

CAE has recently inaugurated a new Boeing 787 full flight simulator at CAE Madrid, and later this summer, a new Airbus A350 will also be deployed at CAE Madrid. Furthermore, one Boeing 737NG will also be deployed at CAE Barcelona in the second half of 2018. These latest additions also complement the ATR 72-600 deployed in the fall of 2017. All CAE 7000XR Series FFSs are equipped with CAE Tropos™ 6000XR visual system.

In February, Norwegian Airlines extended its pilot training agreement with CAE for the provision of additional Boeing 737 pilot and cabin crew training, to support the airline's growing training needs across the region. In addition to training at CAE Copenhagen, CAE Stockholm, and CAE Oslo, the airline's pilots and cabin crew will now also train at CAE London Gatwick and CAE Barcelona.

Last quarter, BA CityFlyer extended its nearly one decade partnership with CAE for the provision of Embraer E190 pilot training services. Under the agreement, BA CityFlyer's pilots will continue to train at CAE Amsterdam and CAE London Gatwick for three years.
