ATR opened a new pilot training center in Paris last month. Based near Charles de Gaulle International Airport, the center features a new ATR 72-500 full flight simulator (FFS) developed and manufactured by Thales. ATR has established the new center in partnership with SIM Aéro Training, which will house the simulator and all the other teaching tools put in place by ATR, in addition to providing technical support.
ATR now operates pilot training centers in Toulouse, Paris, Bangkok and Toronto. It plans to open other centers in Johannesburg and Bangalore soon.
