London, July 20, 2022, SPA -- The National Aviation Academy (TAYARAN) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with a coalition of BAE SDT and IFTC, to establish the first Flight Simulator training center in Riyadh, as the first center to provide simulator training in the region outside airlines. The signing took place on the sidelines of Farnborough International Airshow. The MoU comes to keep pace with the Saudi Vision 2030 and localize the industry, in order to enhance the Saudi Arabia’s economic position to become a hub for high-tech industries and services. The center’s establishment is an extension of the quality training programs offered by the academy and to serve its students who wish to continue their advanced training on flight simulators such as Airbus 320 and Boeing 737 as a first stage. --SPA 15:37 LOCAL TIME 12:37 GMT 0015 www.spa.gov.sa/w1764299
