Safe Flight Academy (SFA), the airline pilot training academy, announces the launch of the “Pilot Cadet Program” in Tunisia in collaboration with the airline company Nouvelair. This program offers candidates interested in a career in aviation the opportunity to undergo a curriculum that begins with basic training and theory, followed by flight hours, and can lead to recruitment as a qualified airline pilot on a jet aircraft.

The “Pilot Cadet Program” by SFA in partnership with Nouvelair is a comprehensive and quality training program conducted by experienced instructors. It provides access to state-of-the-art flight simulators such as Mechtronix and Alsim, and hands-on learning with a modern fleet of next-generation aircraft like the DA40 NG and DA42 NG. In a rapidly expanding global aviation market that will require over 260,000 new pilots in the next decade, this partnership between Safe Flight Academy and Nouvelair demonstrates their shared commitment to providing training to the next generation of skilled and competent pilots.

The Pilot Cadet Program will train around twenty pilots annually starting from 2023. These pilots will cater to the needs of Nouvelair and other aviation sectors.

Founded in 1989, Nouvelair is Tunisia’s leading private airline. Operating a young and efficient fleet of 13 Airbus A320s, it serves more than 60 regular and charter destinations across 3 continents from 4 international airports in Tunisia: Tunis, Monastir, Sfax, and Djerba. Nouvelair has been awarded the Best Customer Service in Tunisia for the years 2020, 2021, and 2022.

Safe Flight Academy is a renowned international aerospace training school. Accredited by the Tunisian Civil Aviation Authority and several foreign civil aviation authorities, Safe Flight Academy offers comprehensive and high-quality training programs, preparing students for successful careers in aviation. SFA stands out for its training program accreditation to ICAO standards and for being the first school in Africa to issue a pilot license according to the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) standards.
