With the increased demand and pilots seemingly having issues getting scheduled, Embraer and CAE have added another full-flight simulator in Las Vegas, NV.
For years, Embraer and CAE have worked together in a joint venture to provide Embraer Phenom flight training named ECTS.
This brings the total of simulators available by ECTS 7 worldwide.
Nick Leondtidis, CAE Group President said, “With Phenom FFS in four locations, we are bringing our innovative methodologies and advanced simulation technology closer to where our customers operate their aircraft, CAE’s group president said. “With partners like Embraer, we are expanding our network and increasing capacity to meet the growing demand for business jet pilots.”
And Johann Bordais, President and CEO of Embraer Services and Support added, "Offering additional capacity for pilot training is part of our strategy to provide the best services to the market. This new Phenom series simulator is also a milestone in our long-term relationship, and we are pleased to be part of the new CAE Las Vegas Training Center."
