CAE Ventures into Live Military Training
CAE has bought the NFTC flying school in Canada as a prelude to competing for more training system requirements.

Earlier this year simulation and training specialist CAE (Chalet 56) agreed to purchase Bombardier’s Military Aviation Training business, and with it the NATO Flying Training in Canada (NFTC) school. NFTC operates from Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, with the Beechcraft CT-156/T-6 Harvard II and from Cold Lake, Alberta, with the BAE Systems CT-155 Hawk.

As well as providing training for the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF), the school also trains students and instructors from other NATO nations and allies, including Saudi Arabia, Singapore and the UAE. More than 1,000 pilots have already graduated from the school.
