CAE SimuFlite, the Texas-based business aviation pilot and maintenance
training center (Booth 2339), has made several announcements at
this year's NBAA Convention. Among them are the following:
It will add a Citation X Level D-certified full-flight simulator
to its facility in Dallas. The device will be ready for training
in fall 2004, and will be the first Citation X simulator installed
in CAE's global network of training centers.
It is bringing its CAE Simfinity simulation-based ground school
training to the Gulfstream IV and V. A CAE Simfinity virtual simulator
and integrated procedures trainer for the GIV will be installed
by January 2004, and for the GV in March 2004. In addition, the
company is offering personal interactive training over the Internet
for BBJ pilots, expanding its existing BBJ pilot training courses.
It has joined with Airbus to offer Airbus Corporate Jetliner
customers enhanced training courses beginning in January 2004.
These will be the first Airbus ACJ available in North America.
ACJ operators will now have access to training at 10 sites worldwide,
including four in the Americas-Denver, Miami, São Paulo
and Toronto.
