Name Change Follows DCA's Acquisition In January
Delta Connection Academy, which was
acquired by Aerosim in January of this year, has announced that the
flight school will now be known as Aerosim Flight Academy. Aerosim
says the new name solidifies the company's presence as a truly
integrated entity in the aviation industry.
The school says the renaming of the academy is indicative of the
company's strategic growth in service offerings. Aerosim's
expansion enables them to more completely serve their traditional
customers while offering students additional training opportunities
and a recognized industry name to carry with them.
With a number of simulation-based training products already in
use with commercial air carriers and training organizations
world-wide, the company says its reputation for advanced technology
is well established. Through the academy acquisition, Aerosim now
also provides training at four U.S. campuses for first time pilots
pursuing primary flight training. Students can achieve private,
commercial, multi-engine and instrument ratings as well as flight
instructor ratings and airline first officer courses. For the
industry veteran, Aerosim says it offers initial and recurrent
airline type rating training. In its entirety, Aerosim offers
pilots a world renowned training partner with wide reaching
industry connections.
"The evolution from Delta Connection Academy to Aerosim Flight
Academy allows us to serve our cadets with a singular focus on
career-oriented professional flight training," said Paul Woessner,
Senior Vice President, Aerosim Flight Academy. "The entire
organization is built around a vision of quality training on a
technologically advanced platform. The reputation of the Aerosim
name will serve cadets well as they progress into the airlines," he
continued.
"The industry is looking for a partner that can provide a full
range of training solutions customized to their requirements,"
added Aerosim CEO Dave Rapley. "Bringing our technology together
with the academy's airline-based approach to professional pilot
training just made sense in terms of providing a modern curriculum
using advanced technology and offering an even broader range of
customized training solutions. Now as we present under a unified
name, we reaffirm our commitment to provide the industry with that
singular partner."
