CAT: Civil Aviation Training
Civil Aviation Training (CAT) is the world’s premier online source of content dedicated to airline simulation and training. Since its inception in 1990, CAT has been at the forefront of highlighting the latest training practices for pilots, cabin crew, maintainers, and ground operations throughout the civil aviation safety industry.
The civil aviation training market is experiencing robust growth, driven by increasing global air traffic and the subsequent need for skilled pilots and crew. As of 2023, the global civil aerospace simulation and training market was valued at approximately $5.2 billion and is expected to reach $7.1 billion by 2032, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.5% (IMARC).
Key Market Drivers
- Pilot Demand: The commercial aviation sector is witnessing a significant pilot shortage. Boeing's 2022 Pilot & Technician Outlook projects a global demand for approximately 602,000 new pilots over the next two decades. This high demand is driving the growth of flight training programs and the need for advanced simulation technologies.
- Technological Advancements: Innovations in flight simulators, including full-flight simulators (FFS) and flight training devices (FTD), are enhancing the training experience. These technologies provide realistic training environments that replicate various flight scenarios, weather conditions, and emergency situations, which are crucial for pilot skill development and safety.
- Recovery from COVID-19: The aviation industry is recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic, with air travel demand surpassing pre-pandemic levels in many regions. This recovery is driving investments in new aircraft and the expansion of flight training programs to meet the rising demand for qualified pilots.
