Lockheed Martin plans to develop center for C-130J and LM-100J training

Lockheed Martin is meeting the increasing global demand for C-130J military and LM-100J commercial flight training with a new International Training Center (ITC) to be located at the corporation’s Marietta, Georgia, Aeronautics facility. Featuring academic classroom space and simulator facilities to support the full spectrum of aircrew training, the center will support training needs including initial qualification, refresher courses, instructor qualification and mission training. The center is currently under construction and will open in 2018. The ITC is co-located with the manufacturing line for the C-130J, a military tactical airlifter and the LM-100J, a civil multi-purpose air freighter.
