Training Services
October 26, 2011 - Training Center Opens in China
On October 26, Eurocopter reached a major milestone with the official opening of the very first helicopter ab-initio training program in China, a little over a year after signing a Memorandum of Understanding with the Civil Aviation Flight University of China (CAFUC). This is Eurocopter’s 21st worldwide training center to date.
Training technicians and pilots is a key element of Eurocopter’s training strategy in China, as there are very few civil resources to satisfy the country’s booming helicopter market, which requires at least 100 pilots a year over the next five years. Using a “train the trainer” approach, Eurocopter’s Training Center in Kassel qualified five Chinese instructors on the latest EASA standards. By collaborating with Eurocopter China, the CAFUC obtained qualification from the Civil Aviation Authority of China (CAAC), making the center the first training organization in China certified for ab-initio technician training (CCAR 147 qualification).
