International continuous CPL(H) training for future helicopter pilots of the Dalian police starts today at the TRAINING ACADEMY in Augsburg. Further police officers from the Chinese seaport in the Liaoning Province will follow at the beginning of 2013.
This year, the European helicopter manufacturer and global market leader for civil and semi-governmental helicopters, Eurocopter, was able to supply several EC 155 helicopters to the Chinese.
The fact that Eurocopter has again chosen the Heli Aviation TRAINING ACADEMY over many other national and international aviation schools speaks for its trust and the valued quality of the training in our company.
This is why the five police officers of the Chinese Dalian police today started their continuous training as commercial pilots CPL(H) in the TRAINING ACADEMY in Augsburg. The trainee pilots in the first Asian class will remain in Germany for 10 months and complete their pilot training on the Guimbal Cabri G2 in addition to night flight training and turbine transition training. This training enables and permits the prospective helicopter pilots to fly turbine-driven helicopters. During their training time in the TRAINING ACADEMY in Augsburg, our Asian trainee pilots will be accommodated in the apartments of Heli Aviation. Outside the training, too, they will always be supported by our training team and looked after during their leisure activities.
After successfully completing their training as commercial helicopter pilots, the pilots of the Dalian police will then travel on to the Eurocopter training centre in France to attain the type rating for the Eurocopter EC 155.
Training for further police officers from China is starting at the Heli Aviation TRAINING ACADEMY at the beginning of 2013.
