Etihad Aviation Training Signals Broader Ambitions

Etihad’s training arm presents itself as one-stop-shop for training, for individual aspiring pilots to airline customers.

The Etihad Aviation Training fleet encompasses aircraft from piston singles, including aerobatic Extra 300s, up to the Embraer Phenom 100 light jet. The organization is branching out to offer third-party training to worldwide customers, addressing the current global pilot shortage.

Etihad Aviation Training (EAT), part of Etihad Aviation Group (EAG, Hall 4 Stand 4810), has relaunched its aviation training organization with the aim of becoming one of the most comprehensive aviation training facilities in the world. Based at two locations in the emirate of Abu Dhabi, EAT, previously known as Etihad Flight College, is a commercially focused business open to external customers, while retaining the operational and safety values that have underpinned Etihad’s training services to date.

“Etihad Aviation Training is an ambitious enterprise, pursuing its mandate to provide outstanding training services to a global audience. The growth of the business will mirror the expansion of the global training market and we are excited about our expanding portfolio of programs and products.
