Mitsui-CAE MRJ Training Centre

CAE and Mitsui & Co., Ltd. announced in 2011 that they are forming a joint venture to establish and operate a training centre in Japan for the new Mitsubishi Regional Jet (MRJ). In 2010 at the Farnborough Air Show CAE announced an agreement with Mitsubishi Aircraft Corporation to develop and deliver a comprehensive training solution for the MRJ, including a 10-year Exclusive Training Provider program.

The MRJ training centre in Japan is expected to be ready for training in 2014.

In support of the Mitsubishi agreement, CAE is developing two CAE 7000 Series MRJ Level D full-flight simulators (FFS) as well as CAE Simfinity™ integrated procedures trainers. CAE will also design curricula and courseware, and provide CAE-led training for pilots, maintenance technicians, cabin crew, dispatchers and ground support personnel. The two simulators will be the world’s first two MRJ FFSs.
