Aviomar announced it will open a new training centre for aspiring airline pilots at Parma International Airport in 2025. The upcoming state-of-the-art flight training facility in northern Italy will be primarily dedicated to the Ryanair Future Flyer Academy cadet training programmes.
The new training base will feature a hangar for the new aircraft fleet and a training centre comprising of flight operations and maintenance offices, classrooms for theoretical, and two flight simulators (Diamond DA42 FSTD and Boeing 737-8200 MAX FSTD) , as the only official training partner of Ryanair in Italy.
Aviomar General Manager Capt. Michele Marano stated “Parma airport benefits from its strategic location and proximity to key cities for the aviation market such as Milan, Bologna, Brescia, and Bergamo – without the associated congestion and with a wide variety of accommodation options. It is the ideal location for the establishment of a pilot training centre. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to Fabio Grande, Meng, So.Ge.AP Parma Airport Accountable Manager, for having fully embraced the Aviomar Project and for promoting the collaboration between the two companies in the establishment of a cutting-edge aviation training centre.”
Ryanair Director of Talent, Mark Duffy, said “This new training centre will provide the airline with a steady pipeline of talented and professional pilots from around Europe to meet the needs of our growing network. We are pleased to continue our partnership and lend our operational expertise to Aviomar Flight Academy. This combination will be the best possible preparation for an exciting airline career with Ryanair.”
