Embraer-CAE Training Services (ECTS) will deploy two new Phenom 300 full-flight simulators (FFS) to meet growing demand for pilot training in Europe and the U.S., Embraer and CAE said Monday. The joint venture plans to place the first new FFS at CAE London Burgess Hill in the first quarter of next year and the second at CAE Las Vegas in the third quarter.
“After opening a new Phenom series full-flight simulator in April, we are announcing two new ones in the U.S. and Europe,” said Carlos Naufel, president and CEO of Embraer Services and Support. “We are working with CAE to be where our customers need us to be, providing them with our latest technological updates and best-in-class support.”
ECTS now operates seven Phenom-series simulators located in Las Vegas, Dallas, London Burgess Hill, and Guarulhos, Brazil. &nbsp;
“The two new simulators will double our Phenom 300 training capacity in Las Vegas and London and allow ECTS to train more pilots at a critical time,” explained Alexandre Prevost, CAE’s division president for business aviation and helicopter training. “Over the next 10 years, CAE forecasts a need for 32,000 business aviation pilots, and we are working with our partners at Embraer to ensure Phenom 300 customers have the highly qualified pilots they need to keep them flying. &nbsp;
With 700 airplanes in operation, the Phenom 300 has ranked as the best-selling light jet in the world for 11 years in a row and has become the most-flown jet in the U.S., according to Embraer.
