    Emirates Airline to set up USD108.87m fight training center

    (MENAFN) Emirates Airline's Chief Executive, Shaikh Ahmad Bin Saeed Al Maktoum, said that the carrier would construct a flight training center in Dubai World Central development in Jebel Ali with an investment of USD108.87 million, reported Gulf News. Shaikh Ahmad added that the purpose of the Emirates Flight Training Academy would be to train around 400 local pilots at a time, in order to handle the issue of the shortage in pilots' numbers. He also said that the establishment of the facility, which would include classrooms, student accommodation, ground-based simulators and flight training, would begin in next year's first quarter, whereas it would end in 2013's third quarter. It is worth noting that Emirates Flight Training Academy will incorporate its own Flight Training Organization (FTO) which will permit the carrier to train its UAE national pilots in Dubai.
