Volotea to take first batch of cadets from new Airbus pilot-training campus
Spanish operator Volotea is to be the first airline customer for a new Airbus flight-training school which has been inaugurated at Angouleme in France. It will be managed by Airbus Flight Academy Europe, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the airframer. Eleven cadet pilots from the school will be recruited by Volotea and be operating for the carrier from around April and May, once the final training is complete. “We know the programme quality is of a very high standard, adapting perfectly to Volotea´s training philosophy,” says the airline’s chief, Carlos Munoz. “Our company keeps on growing year after year our Airbus fleet, and we’re going to be needing many more pilots.” Volotea operates a fleet of A320-family twinjets.<br/>
