Six Chinese Student Pilots Graduate from Aerosim Flight Academy

Feb. 2, 2011 - PRLog -- Of the 74 international student pilots Aerosim Flight Academy received from the Civil Aviation Flight University of China (CAFUC) last year, the first six graduated January 31, 2011. The celebration was an emotional one for these new graduates as they return to China to fly for various Chinese airlines.

The students trained for nine months and will now return to CAFUC to learn to fly large commercial aircraft such as the B737 and A320. An almost tearful student, Liang, Guo commented, “Nine months ago we came here and knew nothing and today I stand here knowing I have learned to fly. We had the same dream to come here (Aerosim Flight Academy) and I now extend my best wishes for all in our future careers.” Each graduate named their instructor for the individual attention they received in their training.

According to Eduardo Carrasco Vice President of Global Business Development, in addressing the graduates, “Congratulations all and thank you for allowing us to take part in your dream of flying. We know you leave here with your wings and Aerosim Flight Academy in your hearts.”

The weekend prior to graduation, the academy celebrated the Chinese New Year at the Orlando Chinese Professionals Association with 800 in attendance; 73 Aerosim Flight Academy students and instructors. The event’s highlights included traditional Chinese performances by the Disney Chinese Acrobats that perform daily at Epcot.

CAFUC awarded Aerosim Flight Academy the training contract because it has the reputation and proven track record for superior flight training. With the United States having fairly open airspace, it provides a great opportunity for flight training as well as many recreational opportunities in our Florida flight training location.  The English language immersion of living in the US is crucial to the total success of the programs as it is the mandatory language of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).
