New training facility in Saudi

HRH Prince Sultan Bin Abdul Aziz laid the foundation stone of the Saudi Arabian Airlines' new flight training facility, the "Prince Sultan Academy for Aviation Science" in Jeddah in the last week of June.

The prince also holds the titles of Second Deputy Premier, Minister of Defense and Aviation, Inspector General, and Chairman of the Board of Saudi Arabian Airlines.

The new facility will be one of the leading specialised training facilities in the Middle East and will include a building for flight training and another for safety training. It will have simulators, high-tech class rooms for theory and practical training, CPTs, aircraft cabins, evacuation equipment, control rooms and other computerised aviation related systems.

This is a short little item, but I wanted to get it posted on FR for documentation purposes.

Looks like Arab terrorists will be able to learn to fly planes in the comfort and safety of their own nation from now on.

Yeah ..... Will learning take offs and landings cost extra?? Enquiring Jehadis want to know.

I didn't notice any Parachute Training listed. Same old story I guess. Probably no Landing Instuction either.

Saudi pilot school where they teach you to fly but not to land.

The jihadists must pay, just like the Axis powers did, and with the same ferocity thrown upon them.
