CAE today announced that it has sold four CAE 7000 Series Level D full-flight simulators (FFS) and associated training devices with a total list price of approximately C$60 million: an Airbus A320 FFS to Aeroflot, the largest airline of the Russian Federation; an A320 and a B737 to the Zhuhai Flight Training Centre (ZFTC), a joint venture of China Southern Airlines and CAE; and a Bell 412 helicopter FFS to an undisclosed customer. These sales were booked during CAE’s first quarter and bring the total number of FFS sales that CAE has announced to date during fiscal year 2012 to 11.

“These new simulators reflect the continued growth of aviation in emerging markets in Russia and China and further expand CAE’s global presence in the airline and helicopter markets,” said Jeff Roberts, CAE’s Group President, Civil Simulation Products, Training and Services. “CAE’s complete portfolio of training solutions provides our customers with the technology advantage to enhance the safety, efficiency and effectiveness of their flight operations.”

The Bell 412 simulator was sold to an undisclosed customer and will operate from CAE’s recently announced training centre in Toluca, Mexico when it opens in 2012.
