Emirates-CAE Flight Training to provide helicopter training to India's Global Vectra

Emirates-CAE Flight Training (ECFT) has signed a three-year contract to provide helicopter training to Global Vectra Helicorp. Ltd (GVHL), India’s largest offshore helicopter operator.
Global Vectra’s flight crew will undergo training on the Bell Helicopter 412 full-flight simulator at ECFT’s facility in Dubai for both recurrent and initial type training.
Walter Visser, Managing Director ECFT, said: ‘I am very pleased to welcome Global Vectra to Emirates-CAE Flight Training and I am confident its flight crew will receive the highest level of training, in pleasant and secure surroundings.
‘ECFT became an authorised Bell Helicopter Training Facility in 2006 for operators of the Bell 412 helicopter across the Middle East and Asia. Since then, we have attracted a significant number of helicopter operators within the region, who appreciate the fact that our location is close enough to their operations to ensure minimal disruption to their schedules.’
Emirates – CAE Flight Training is approved by both the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the European Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA). The Bell 412 full flight simulator is certified to FAA Level D standard and is also the first of its type in the world to be certified to Level D standard by the UK’s Civil Aviation Authority (UK-CAA).
