TRU Simulation + Training (Booth 219) and FlightSafety International are forming a joint venture to deliver training for Textron Aviation aircraft, both for business aviation and general aviation operators. TRU will be the exclusive supplier of new Textron Aviation simulators for the joint venture, according to FlightSafety (Booth 2638), but the two companies will also combine their resources to support training needs for pilots and technicians. This includes simulators, courseware, and personnel.


“The combination of our training capabilities will enable us to provide best-in-class pilot and maintenance training programs to our customers around the world,” said David Davenport, FlightSafety co-CEO and president of commercial.


“With Textron Aviation continuing to expand its product portfolio with aircraft such as the Latitude, Longitude, Hemisphere, Denali, and SkyCourier, it is critical that we provide the full scope of training services our customers require,” said TRU president Gunnar Kleveland. “This joint venture will allow us to better address that demand.”
