Vienna, Austria – Global aviation training provider CAE has officially hosted Canadian and Austrian dignitaries at its new CAE Vienna Training Center, including Canadian Ambassador to Austria, H.E. Troy Lulashnyk, and representatives from the Austrian Ministry of Defence. The visit coincided with recent operational milestones at the center, which now houses Europe’s first Bombardier Global 7500 full-flight simulator (FFS) as part of a broader expansion of business aviation training infrastructure in Central Europe.

• CAE Vienna is the company’s first business aviation training center in Central Europe, having welcomed its first customers in April 2025.

• The site currently operates a Gulfstream G550 simulator and Europe’s first Global 7500 FFS.

• Additional full-flight simulators to be deployed include:

  • Bombardier Global Vision and Embraer Phenom 100/300 simulators (summer 2025)

  • Bombardier Challenger 3500 (October 2025)

  • Pilatus PC-24 (second half of 2026)

• Once fully developed, the 8,000 sq. ft facility will host up to nine simulators.

• The new center supports growing demand for business aviation training in Europe and provides increased simulator access for operators flying long-range and super-midsize jets.
