CAE is expanding its business aviation training activities in Central Europe with plans to open a new center in the second half of 2024. The center would become CAE’s first business aviation facility in the region and have a capacity for up to six full-flight simulators for training on the latest light and large-cabin business jets, the company said.

The aviation training provider is finalizing details on where the center would be located and which simulators it would house initially, a spokesman told AIN, adding that the company hopes to have those details ready in time for EBACE next month.

“CAE’s new training center in Central Europe will add much-needed training capacity in the region and bring us closer to where our customers operate their aircraft,” said CAE Civil Aviation group president Nick Leontidis. “CAE is expanding its business aviation training network in strategic locations to help the industry meet the global requirement for an additional 45,000 business aviation pilots over the next 10 years.”

The announcement of plans for Central Europe comes on the heels of the inauguration of its first business aviation training facility on the U.S. West Coast this month in Las Vegas. CAE is also set to open a facility in Savannah, Georgia, later this year.
