The Latvian Civil Aviation agency has certified the new Latvian airline's airBaltic Airbus A220 highest standard full flight simulator that now is based at the airBaltic Training facilities next to Riga International Airport. This is the first new full flight simulator ever purchased by a Latvian company.
Pauls Cālītis, airBaltic SVP Flight Operations: "This is a great investment for the future of airBaltic and aviation industry's development in Latvia. The new simulator is an additional and important competitive advantage of airBaltic Training as there are only two Airbus A220 simulators in Europe and this is the newest CAE 7000XR Series simulator in the world. The state-of-the-art full-flight simulator located right next to our headquarters in Latvia now provides training simplicity and cost reductions."
