Boeing has signed a Memorandum of Understanding
with the Indonesian Ministry of Transportation to jointly work to establish advanced aviation training programs and training
practices in accordance with globally recognized standards.
Under the terms of the memorandum, Boeing Flight Services and
Indonesian officials will seek opportunities to develop flight,
technician, dispatch and air traffic control training.
The
understanding between Boeing and the Indonesia Ministry of
Transportation focuses on the development of an advanced aviation
training center and Infrastructure including the establishment of ab initio
- or initial - pilot training and commercial jet pilot
type training programs in accordance with Federal Aviation
Administration and European Aviation Safety Agency regulations.
In addition the understanding seeks to align air traffic
controller (ATC) training programs to standards and equipment deployed throughout Indonesia and to align airline maintenance
training programs with global standards of courseware, curriculum
and the education and training of instructors, management and
staff.
The Boeing Pilot & Technician Outlook projects
that the Southeast Asia region, including Indonesia, will require
more than 47,000 new commercial airline pilots and more than
60,000 new maintenance technicians over the next 20 years to
support economic and air travel growth and new airplane
deliveries.
"The need for these kinds of solutions has never
been more important, as Indonesia undergoes unprecedented growth," said Captain Bobby Mamahit, director of the Indonesia Ministry of
Transportation, Human Resource Development Agency. "Our need for
world class training programs fits very well with the capabilities
that Boeing is equipped to offer."
