AIRBUS

We offer type rating courses for the Airbus A320, A330 & A340. Additional modules such as Low Visibility Operations, PBN or Zero Flight Time training are also available. We also have a combined MCC/A320 Type Rating for ab-initio students.

An existing Airbus type rating may be converted to any other Airbus rating through an abridged Cross-Crew Qualification. We offer CCQ to A320, A330 & A340 from all other Airbus types, including the A380.
