What our experts say

Testimonials

  • Our ambition is that Airbus cadets are ready to operate when they join an airline and that, during their evolution towards positions of captains and instructors, they are really the central elements of their airlines' staff, and that they also bring the values learned with the Airbus Cadet Code to the airlines they are flying with.

    Thomas Aoudia
    Head of Airbus Flight Academy Network Growth

  • When you fly an aircraft, you can't stop the aircraft and wait for someone. If something happens in the air, you need to cope with this. This is why training is very demanding, because, if you're not well trained, if something happens, safety will be jeopardised. We're always looking for the next step, the next inch who makes us safer.

    Captain Stéphan Labrucherie
    Head of Flight Training worldwide
