The contracts are worth a total of more than C$120 million (approx $101 million U.S.) at list prices, and bring the total number of FFS sales announced in fiscal year 2015 to 31. List prices include the value of OEM aircraft-specific data, parts and equipment (DP&E), normally procured by CAE in the manufacture of its simulators.

The contracts include the sale of:
- One Bombardier Challenger 604 simulator to Cobham Aviation Services of Australia

- One Boeing 787-9 simulator to Air China
- One Boeing B737-800W and one Gulfstream 650 FFS to Emirates-CAE Flight Training

"Airlines and operators from around the world continue to turn to CAE for their training needs. We are very proud to continue to grow our relationships with Air China, Ryanair and Emirates-CAE Flight Training and to welcome Uzbekistan Airways and Cobham Aviation as new customers," said Nick Leontidis, CAE's Group President, Civil Simulation and Training.
