Cabair flies on

Following last week's AERBT report that the long established Cabair professional pilot training organisation was in administration things have moved on and Cabair International (UK) Ltd has been restructured with headquarters at Cranfield University Airport in modern classrooms in what is known as the Innovation Centre.

Under new private funding arrangements Cabair has retained its management team and instructors continuing to offer integrated and modular courses for students training for professional pilots' licences. Tuition continues with a fleet of PA28s, DA-40s and DA-42s, and the aircraft are complemented by three company simulators, two Alsim DA-42s which provide excellent continuity in glass cockpit training, and a Citation model providing an excellent progressive step for the teaching of crew resource management.  Currently 80 students are under tuition.  Cabair International employs around 35 including support staff.

Work started, before the restructuring, on options for a Boeing 737 full flight simulator and students will be able to select this option to conclude their course.  All students undertake an airline preparation course wholly managed and run by current airline pilots with experience on selection procedures. www.cabair.com
