The Civil Aviation Flight University of China (CAFUC) has begun ab initio helicopter technician training. With 15 students in Guanghan, Sichuan province, the class is the “start of a long-term plan devised by Eurocopter and CAFUC to develop a pool of qualified technicians.” The two expect an annual flow of 120 trainees by 2015. Eurocopter provides training to CAFUC instructors both in China and at its academy in Germany.
