Good news for L3Harris Technologies as it is selected by Japan’s All Nippon Airways to train its next generation of pilots.
The agreement builds on a decades-long pilot training and simulator relationship between L3Harris and one of ANA’s subsidiaries, Peach Aviation.
Beginning in March 2023, the initial group of All Nippon Airlines students will attend the 60-week, single-engine and multi-engine flight training and ground school at L3Harris’ Cranfield Training Centre in England before returning to Japan to complete their Japanese Civil Aviation Bureau license.
Preparing pilots
“This agreement shows the confidence ANA has in the quality of L3Harris’ training capabilities,” said David Coward, vice president and general manager, Airline Academy, L3Harris. “The ANA Group already entrusts us to train its pilots for Peach Aviation and now we will play an even more important role in preparing pilots for its flagship carrier.”
