Worldwide flight training provider CAE yesterday held the official ribbon-cutting ceremony for its newest training center near Las Vegas Harry Reid International Airport. The 50,000-sq-ft facility is the company’s first on the U.S. West Coast and began operations late last year.

With a capacity for a total of eight full-flight simulators, the center is already equipped with seven—representing the Bombardier Global 7500; Gulfstream G650, G550, GV, and GIV; and Embraer ERJ-145 and Phenom 300E. The latter is the seventh Phenom simulator deployed globally as part of the Embraer CAE Training Services joint venture.
