Users of Pratt & Whitney Canada engines can look forward to access to more training locations and online learning tools becoming available to them in the fourth quarter of this year under an agreement signed by the Montreal-based turbine-engine builder and FlightSafety International earlier this year. P&WC announced the agreement at a press conference yesterday here at EBACE.
“Pratt & Whitney Canada currently has four customer training centers, located in overhaul centers in Montreal, Singapore, Germany and China,” Raffaele Virgili, vice president customer service, told AIN. “These will continue to operate as usual while we transition our training to some 12 to 15 FlightSafety facilities.” After the transition to FSI is completed sometime next year, the space now used
for customer training in the overhaul centers will be used in some other capacity by these overhaul centers.
