CAE expands global business aviation training network in US and Singapore
What happened
Flight simulation specialist CAE is expanding its business aviation training capacity by adding full-flight simulators across its U.S. network and launching a digital training platform to address technician shortages. New units include systems for Bombardier Global 6500, Textron Citation CJ4, and Pilatus PC-24 at the Orlando, Florida facility, and an Embraer Praetor 600 system at the Dallas site. The total number of full-flight simulators in CAE's global business aviation training network is now over 130 systems.
