|
CAE has announced that Mexico's first business jet and civil helicopter training centre is open and ready for pilot training.
New full-flight simulators for the Bombardier Learjet 40/45 aircraft and the Bell 412 helicopter were recently qualified to Level D-equivalent standards by Mexico's Dirección General de Aeronáutica Civil (DGAC).
The new CAE training centre is located at Mexico's leading business aviation airport, Aeropuerto Internacional de Toluca, Lic. Adolfo López Mateos, in Toluca, Mexico, easily accessible from Mexico City.
"CAE continues to expand its presence in emerging business aviation and civil helicopter training markets around the world," said
Jeff Roberts, CAE's Group President, Civil Simulation Products, Training and Services. "We are pleased to bring CAE's world-class, customized instruction to the Latin America region so operators of the Learjet 40, Learjet 45 and Bell 412 can receive the highest-quality training, conveniently close to their base of operations."
CAE is Bombardier's Authorized Training Provider for the Learjet 40/40XR and Learjet 45/45XR aircraft. The CAE Bell 412 training program is licensed by Bell Helicopter for the Mexico training centre and other locations.
The Mexico facility is the seventh location in the CAE business aviation training network. Other locations are
at Dallas, New Jersey and Phoenix in the USA; Burgess Hill, UK;
Amsterdam, Netherlands and Dubai, UAE. Additional business aviation training locations have been announced, including Sao Paulo, Brazil (Embraer Phenom training), Melbourne, Australia (King Air 350 ProLine 21 training), and a location to be disclosed in Asia.
