Middle East Business Aviation (MEBA) biennial show that it will
further expand its business aircraft training programs for pilots
and maintenance technicians in Dubai with the addition of a CAE

Challenger 604 aircraft model.The Bombardier Challenger 604 FFS
will be ready for training in the first half of calendar 2012.
"Business aircraft fleets and crew needs are expected to double
over the next five years in the Middle East and neighboring
regions," said Camille Mariamo, Managing Director, Emirates-CAE
Flight Training. "With the addition of the Challenger 604 FFS, ECFT
will offer our clients training on 25 business aircraft programs
for Bombardier, Dassault, Gulfstream, Hawker Beechcraft, Airbus and
Boeing platforms."
Emirates-CAE Flight Training's new Challenger 604 FFS follows
the announcement earlier this year of Dassault Falcon 900EX /
2000EX EASy and Falcon 7X FFSs to be ready for training in Dubai
during 2011. ECFT received regulatory qualification in April 2010
for an FFS for the Bombardier Global Express aircraft.
"CAE continues to expand its global training network for
business aircraft, commercial aircraft and civil helicopters to
meet increasing training demand with the renewed growth in air
travel," said Jeff Roberts, CAE's Group President for Civil
Simulation Products, Training and Services. "Positioning training
capabilities for the most popular aircraft in easy-access regional
centres enables our clients to receive the highest-quality training
while reducing time away from their operations."
