BAE Systems provides flight training to Papua New Guinea

BAE Systems has signed a contract to provide advanced flight training services to the Papua New Guinea (PNG) Defence force.

The contract builds on an earlier agreement in 2011 to provide PNG student pilots with basic flying training at our Tamworth facility.
 
The students are now ready to start the 12-18 month advanced training course to progress to the next stage of their flying careers.
 
General Manager Aviation Solutions John Quaife said: “We are looking forward to extending and developing the relationship with PNG by providing its Defence Force with the highest standard of flying instruction.”
