CAE expands global business aviation network

CAE announced today at the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) annual convention that it will further expand its global business aircraft training network for pilots and maintenance technicians with the addition of two new full-flight simulators (FFSs).

CAE announced that Emirates-CAE Flight Training (ECFT) in Dubai has ordered a new CAE 7000 Series FFS for the Dassault Falcon 7X aircraft. The sale of the FFS to ECFT, a joint venture of Emirates Group and CAE, brings the total number of FFS sales that CAE has announced to date during fiscal year 2011 to 14.

The CAE North East Training Centre in Morristown, New Jersey, near New York City, will install a CAE 5000 Series FFS for the Cessna Citation Sovereign in mid-2011.

CAE also announced that its new CAE Series 5000 Dassault Falcon 50EX FFS located at CAE SimuFlite in Dallas, Texas has been qualified to Level D by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration.

"CAE has continued to aggressively position advanced training capabilities to serve our business aviation customers more efficiently and effectively," said Jeff Roberts, CAE's Group President, Civil Simulation Products, Training and Services. "We have added 20 new simulators in the CAE global training network the past couple of years, numerous interactive e-Learning courses which bring the power of Level D simulation to the customer's laptop anywhere in the world, and operational performance enhancements such as the CAE Flightscape flight data analysis service. Our commitment is to consistently deliver more for less -- superior technology, higher quality instruction and the most flexible customer service -- to provide customers with the best possible training solutions and value to support their aircraft investment."

CAE has initiated training or announced plans to add 13 new business aircraft and civil helicopter simulators in 2010 and 2011: Bombardier Challenger 300 - Amsterdam; Challenger 604 - Amsterdam; Global Express - Dubai; Learjet 40 / 40XR / 45 / 45XR - Burgess Hill, UK; Bell 412 - Bangalore, India; Cessna Citation II - Burgess Hill; Sovereign - Morristown; Dassault Falcon 7X - Dubai; Falcon 50EX - Dallas; Falcon 900 EX / Falcon 2000EX EASy - Dubai; Embraer Phenom 300 - Dallas; Eurocopter AS350 - Phoenix; and Hawker Beechcraft Hawker 800XPi - Dubai.
