Win-Win Deal?
Dassault Falcon has signed a
Maintenance Training Services Agreement with CAE SimuFlite, hoping
to improve quality and effectiveness for customers of both
companies.
"The agreement represents a commitment on the part of CAE
SimuFlite and its instructors to meet Dassault's technical training
requirements," said Dean Anderson, Director of the Service Network
and Maintenance Training, referring to the stringent requirements
laid out in Dassault's Falcon Training Policy Manual (FTPM). "The
agreement is important because it closely adheres to our FTPM
standards and requirements. The FTPM process is in place
precisely to provide an enhanced level of training for both
maintenance technicians and pilots, so this advanced training
program will be a great benefit to our mutual customers."
Under FTPM, Dassault defines the
objectives necessary to meet training requirements to operate and
support Falcon aircraft. These requirements are defined by
the manufacturer, under an expanded relationship between Dassault
and its training providers, who will be regularly evaluated and
audited for compliance. In return, Dassault's certification
acknowledges that both the instructors and their training courses
met the expanded training requirements.
CAE SimuFlite will be involved in developing and delivering this
advance training program under the observation of Dassault's
Technical Education Services group. In return, Dassault
Falcon recognizes CAE SimuFlite as a Dassault-approved training
provider.
This joint effort under the FTPM
will focus on Dassault's Falcon 50/50EX, Falcon 900/900EX and
Falcon 2000/2000EX aircraft, and will carry over to earlier Falcon
models beginning next year.
"CAE SimuFlite is working hard to ensure that the high standards
Dassault has set for this training program are being met," Anderson
said. "Falcon technicians receiving instruction under this
program will benefit from a higher level of skill knowledge for
maintenance, service and support of their Dassault Falcon
aircraft."
