\u201cThe real-life working conditions offered by the Practical\nTraining Program make it the most useful and comprehensive program available\nfrom any OEM,\u201d said Jean Kayanakis, Senior Vice President, Worldwide Customer\nService and Service Center Network. \u201cTrainees obtain access to the latest\nFalcon technologies and maintenance standards while benefiting from the\nhands-on experience of seasoned Dassault Aviation technicians and engineers.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The academy, established in 2013, offers Falcon customers a\nfull portfolio of training options covering the entire life cycle of their\naircraft, from entry into service onward. With two locations in France \u2013\nM\u00e9rignac, near Bordeaux, and Paris-Le Bourget \u2013 the Dassault Training Academy\noffers accredited, two-week, model-specific courses for technicians on all\nFalcon 900 and Falcon 2000 models, as well as the Falcon 7X and 8X. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Falcon Practical Training, the academy\u2019s baseline course, is\ndesigned to complement theoretical instruction provided by CAE, FlightSafety\nInternational and Global Jet Services, Dassault\u2019s Authorized Training\nProviders. It is open to qualified maintenance technicians from operator flight\ndepartments, Dassault owned service centers and Falcon Authorized Service\nfacilities. A key component of the Practical Training syllabus is Falcon\nImmersive Practical Training, a unique 3D virtual reality tool that allows up\nto ten trainees and their trainer to access any component or part (even in the\nnarrowest, hardest-to-reach areas of the airplane) without using actual\nhardware. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Dassault Training Academy also offers a range of\nspecialized offerings such as Structural Repair Training, a five-day course in\nmapping and handling corrosion and composite repair. Offered in partnership\nwith Aerocampus Latresne near Bordeaux, this course enables maintenance crews\nto examine a Falcon aircraft for structural damage and deliver repair in line\nwith Structural Repair Manual (SRM) or Dassault-designed repair schemes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To meet increasing demand and satisfy operator requests for\nmore targeted training, the academy is looking to further develop its\nspecialized course offerings, for example in the areas of pilot maintenance\nfamiliarization servicing tasks and cabin system maintenance.  Dassault Aviation was the first business jet\nmanufacturer to obtain EASA approval to operate as a Part 147 Training Center.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
