Singapore Airlines (SIA) and Airbus will jointly open a training centre for pilots in Singapore.
The Airbus Asia Training Centre (AATC), 55% Airbus owned and 45% SIA owned, is scheduled to commence operations by year-end.
An initial investment of $80 million will be made by the two partners to set up AATC, equipped with flight simulators for Airbus aircraft like the A380 super jumbo and newly-launched A350.
