16 Jan Joby to launch Air Taxi Pilot Training with CAE Flight Simulators

(Oilandgaspress) Joby Aviation announced it has accepted the first of two flight simulators developed in partnership with CAE, a global leader in pilot training. The simulators, scheduled to be qualified amongst the highest Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) classifications for flight simulation, provide the ultra-realistic environment required for commercial single-pilot eVTOL operations and are equipped with the same simulation technology used to train pilots for the world’s leading airlines.

The first generation of the 3000 series simulator – a fixed-based training device – will start installation this month at Joby’s recently expanded manufacturing and pilot training center in Marina, CA. The second unit, a full-motion simulator, is expected to arrive later this year. Once operational, the installation will enable Joby to expand its eVTOL pilot training pipeline, with the two simulators ultimately supporting the training of up to 250 pilots annually.
