Angola – TAAG Angola Airlines has expanded its pilot training programs through a new agreement with Boeing announced at the 2025 Dubai Airshow. The enhanced training cooperation will introduce competency-based, data-informed training scenarios for both cadets and experienced pilots, supporting TAAG’s fleet growth and operational transformation efforts.

• Boeing will provide tailored pilot-training solutions aligned with TAAG’s operational requirements, including scenario-based training for new aircraft induction and mission-specific operational profiles.

• As part of the expanded services, Boeing will deploy experienced pilots to support TAAG during initial aircraft acceptance flights, start-up operational processes, and early flight monitoring for newly delivered aircraft.

• Boeing’s on-the-job instruction and feedback structure is designed to strengthen pilot proficiency and ensure smooth transitions when integrating new aircraft types into TAAG’s fleet, including the airline’s emerging Dreamliner operations.

• The partnership forms a core component of TAAG’s ongoing transformation strategy, which emphasises operational efficiency, technical capability, and sustained alignment with international safety standards.
