Together with its partner, CAE, Emirates announced the acquisition of another new simulator for the Emirates-CAE Flight Training Centre in Dubai.
HH Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al-Maktoum, Chairman of Emirates, said the Hawker 800/800XP was the sixth simulator to be installed at the centre, joining the A320 family, the NG/BBJ, the A330/340 and the Gulfstream IV and the Gulfstream V.
Sheikh Ahmed said: "The region is well served by this training facility. Airlines in the region know and trust the names of Emirates and CAE, and as the centre adds new facilities, I firmly believe we'll continue to attract new customers."
At the same time, Sheikh Ahmed and Derek Burney, CAE's President and Chief Executive Officer, signed four Training Services Agreements with Middle East Airlines (MEA), Royal Jet, Arabasco and National Air Services.
"The Emirates-CAE centre is definitely proving its worth, bringing value through improved training services for customers in the region," said Mr Burney. "The addition of the Hawker device signals our commitment to servicing the needs of business aircraft operators."
