Inauguration of first CAE-built Airbus A320 full-flight simulator at CAE Tokyo - JAL CAE Flight Training (JCFT) centre, equipped with the innovative CAE Rise training system

CAE announced last week the expansion of its pilot training capacity in Japan with the inauguration of its first Airbus A320 full-flight simulator (FFS) deployed at JAL - CAE Flight Training (JCFT), the joint venture between CAE and Japan Airlines, in Tokyo. The CAE-built Airbus A320FFS will support the pilot training needs of Japanese airlines and other airline customers across the region.
