FlyOnE Sustainable Aviation has announced plans to establish a large-scale international Electric Pilot Training facility in Victoria, Australia.
The facility will cater to the growing demand for electric pilot training and address the $68 billion pilot training growth market. Over the next 20 years, Boeing projects a continued significant demand for aviation personnel as the global commercial airplane fleet continues to expand.
The new training facility will be equipped with Pipistrel electric aircraft, high-efficiency non-electric aircraft and cutting-edge simulation technology, providing aspiring pilots with a comprehensive and sustainable training experience. The facility will also offer training programs for current pilots looking to transition to electric aircraft, as well as refresher courses for experienced pilots.
FlyOnE will also conduct regular on-demand decarbonised air charters to and from the region, connecting the site with Melbourne, Sale, King Islan, Toquay, and other tourism destination hot spots.
“With the global aviation industry shifting towards sustainable solutions, there is a growing international demand for electric pilot training in Australia’s ample air space,” said FlyOnE Sustainable Aviation’s CEO, Korum Ellis. “Our facility will not only address this demand but also contribute to the growth of the pilot training market, of which there is an estimated global market volume of over $68 Billion between now and 2043, with much of that demand in our neighboring Asian regions.”
