International Flight Academy in Portugal Joins FTD.aero’s Customer Base

Portugal – Following a thorough evaluation and a successful test session on one of FTD.aero-built simulators, IFA – International Flight Academy has contracted FTD.aero to build, deliver and install a B73M FNPT II MCC FSTD at their training facility at Viseu Airport (LPVZ), Portugal.

The device will feature several advanced upgrades and OEM aircraft components, creating a highly realistic cockpit environment that closely replicates a modern twin-jet airliner. Once qualified under EASA FNPT II MCC regulations (expected in early 2026), the simulator will support Airline Pilot Standard (APS) MCC training — delivering airline-ready cadets.

FTD.aero will also be exhibiting at Asia Pacific Airline Training Symposium (APATS) at booth #501, taking place in Singapore between 26th-27th of August.

Aircraft Manufacturer Positioned for New Orders as Global Trade Talks Advance in 2025

China – Boeing may soon see a significant revival in aircraft orders from China, as the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) begins surveying the country’s airlines regarding future fleet needs and potential procurement of overdue Boeing orders. This development signals a possible thaw in U.S.-China aviation trade relations, offering Boeing a strategic opening amid ongoing bilateral trade talks.

  • On July 28, 2025, CAAC met with Boeing Senior Vice President Brendan Nelson in Beijing to explore deeper aviation cooperation.

  • The CAAC has asked Chinese carriers to update their 2025+ fleet renewal plans, including any discussions with Boeing and intentions to proceed with 737 MAX and 787 Dreamliner orders.

  • The inquiry comes as U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Chinese Vice-Premier He Lifeng prepare for a third round of trade talks in Stockholm, with large aircraft purchases historically serving as trade-balancing gestures.

  • China’s pent-up demand for Boeing jets is significant, especially among Boeing-only fleet operators such as:

    • Shandong Airlines – 131 Boeing 737s (avg. age: 11+ years)

    • Shanghai Airlines – 83 Boeing aircraft including 8 Dreamliners

    • China United Airlines – 59 Boeing 737s

    • 9 Air and Donghai Airlines – 20+ Boeing jets each

  • Boeing’s Zhoushan delivery center near Shanghai has also resumed activity, suggesting readiness for broader re-engagement.

  • Industry analysts believe potential new Boeing orders may be timed with anticipated diplomatic events, such as a proposed Xi–Trump meeting at the 2025 APEC Summit in South Korea.
