Leonardo has officially opened its AW101 Norway Training Centre at Stavanger Sola airport. The centre includes a new AW101 full flight simulator which will support the training of Norwegian aircrew and will also be available to other AW101 customers.

Leonardo MD Daniele Romiti says: “This simulator represents the very latest in simulator technology and will enable us to deliver the best quality training to Norwegian pilots.”

The new facility in Sola will be a dedicated satellite of Leonardo Helicopters’ Yeovil Training Academy.
