Canadian flight training and simulator specialist CAE (Booth C10610) has launched a Master Pilot Program to take pilot training for business aircraft to a new level of quality, underpinned by Wyvern Wingman approval.
Launched this week at the NBAA convention, the program is available with immediate effect at CAE’s worldwide training centers. “The CAE Master Pilot Program has been designed as an exemplary career advancement tool, raising pilot levels of platform knowledge, safety awareness and situational response capabilities,” the company said.
“We know what distinguishes good pilots and great pilots," said CAE Group president Nick Leontidis. "This new program, with its tailored training curriculum using cutting-edge flight simulation, will allow pilots to elevate their status and training to the highest levels for in-flight safety.”
Art Dawley, CEO of Wyvern, added, “The Wingman Standard requires pilots to be trained following the highest levels available and that ongoing professional development in emerging safety areas be part of a flight department’s continuous approach to managing risk in their flight operations.”
CAE also announced that Flexjet has extended its contract for customized pilot training on the various aircraft types operated by Flexjet and Flight Options for a further six years. Training will continue to be conducted at CAE’s training centers in Dallas and Morristown, New Jersey. CAE has provided pilot training for Flexjet since 2003.
