Will Provide Instruction in Boeing 737-800 Aircraft
Emirates-CAE Flight Training (ECFT) has entered into a long-term pilot training agreement with flydubai, a Dubai-based carrier. This arrangement will provide instruction on the Boeing 737-800 aircraft to those interested in having an opportunity to fly for flydubai. The program is offered to commercial pilots who have less than 1,500 flying hours. The program is currently underway at the Emirates-CAE Flight Training (ECFT) and Dubai Silicon Oasis (DSO) centers.
As the aviation industry in the Middle East continues to grow, training facilities for pilots to gain additional experience and skills are essential. This program demonstrates the commitment of ECFT and flydubai to ensuring pilots are offered world-class training opportunities.
The ECFT type-rating program represents an opportunity for low-hour commercial pilots to accumulate the required number of flying hours and become type rated. Upon successful completion of the program, pilots will be able to apply for any potential vacancies at flydubai and may then be invited to undergo a comprehensive evaluation and interview process.
"flydubai pilots have trained solely with ECFT since the airline's beginning. The trademark of ECFT's training is defined by high-quality," said Kenneth Gile, Chief Operating Officer at flydubai. "With our focus on safety and passenger confidence, we seek to hire the best talent in the industry and have chosen ECFT as a trusted partner to help us find qualified pilots to join our team of passionate and dedicated people."
"Identifying and training qualified pilot candidates for growing airlines such as flydubai is an important element of the portfolio of products and services CAE offers to airlines," said Walter Visser, Managing Director of Emirates-CAE Flight Training. "Our mission is to be the training partner of choice for our customers and this program is another example of how we work with our customers to cater to their specific training needs. Our instructional programs use innovative methodologies and best-in-class instructors to ensure the safety and efficiency of our customer operations."
