“The certificate ensures that training conforms fully with Dassault Aviation
requirements and that the slightest change in aircraft design will immediately be
reflected in the training syllabus,” said Gerard Dailloux, Vice President, Operational
Support at Dassault Aviation. “Obtaining them required an enormous investment in time and
resources on the part of our training partners – testimony to the closeness of our
partnership and our mutual commitment to providing the highest level of training quality
and safety to our customers.”
The FTPM is intended to ensure that Falcon customers around the world are trained to
the same high quality standard and equally benefit from the most up-to-date technical
information on each aircraft they operate. To obtain qualification, FlightSafety
International and CAE each underwent a stringent evaluation intended to identify variance
from FTPM policy standards and update instructor skills, courseware and training tools and
devices where needed to meet these standards. The training providers developed a process
which involved intensive tracking of changes to aircraft design and flight documentation
and drew heavily on customer feedback and internal quality audits.
The certificates are valid for two years which reflect the ongoing nature of the
approval process and will be followed by individual aircraft approvals throughout 2013.
