airBaltic has ordered an Airbus A220 Level D full flight simulator (FFS) from CAE. The new CAE 7000XR Series simulator is scheduled for delivery by the end of 2019.
Martin Gauss, CEO of airBaltic said: “Introducing a singlefleet type of up to 80 Airbus A220-300 aircraft also means that as an airlinewe will have to train hundreds of our existing and future pilots. Astate-of-the-art full-flight simulator located right next to our headquarterswill provide much desired training simplicity and cost reductions.” Gaussadded, “There are only two Airbus A220 simulators in Europe. This will be thenewest such simulator in the world.”
The simulator will be based at the airBaltic Trainingfacilities in Riga International Airport and it is the first new full flightsimulator ever purchased by a Latvian company.
