©BAA Training Vietnam Airbus A320 FFS

Pilot training centre BAA Training Vietnam and Bamboo Airways, a Vietnamese airline owned by the FLC Group, have strengthened the reliable and long-term partnership with a five-year contract from 2021 up until 2026. Under this contract, Bamboo Airways pledges to prioritise using full-flight simulator (FFS) A320/1 lease service of BAA Training Vietnam. The second part of the agreement covers A320 and E190 Type Rating services for Bamboo Airways pilots, with ATP Bridging, MCC and JOC included in the package.

In addition, BAA Training’s facilities in Europe will be the first choice of Bamboo Airways when it comes to selecting Type Rating or dry lease services for FFS A320/1 outside of Vietnam. 

Managing Director of BAA Training Vietnam, Vytautas Jankauskas, says: “We have been partnering with Bamboo Airways from the very beginning of our operations in 2019. Now we are fostering this time-tested cooperation further and will invest additionally to meet the client’s needs. Responsible approach towards training quality, ambitious expansion plans and willingness to add up to the aviation sector’s prosperity in Vietnam and South-East Asia is what ties Bamboo Airways and BAA Training Vietnam together.”
