Captain Nathan Burkitt, Head of Training and Checking, Flight Operations, ASL Australia, said: "Feedback from our trainees on the course, facilities, instructors and overall training environment at Acron Aviation has been overwhelmingly positive, with particular praise for the instructors' professionalism, knowledge and commitment to helping every pilot succeed." Capt. Burkitt added, "The standard of manual handling, automation management and generic Boeing knowledge demonstrated by the candidates on return was very good. All trainees arrived at their Operator Initial Conversion training well prepared and clearly had a solid foundation from the type rating programme."
