萨凡纳，GA, United States, Feb 15, 2012 - ( JCN Newswire ) - 湾流航空公司（Gulfstream Aerospace）及飞安国际公司（FlightSafety International）于今日宣布香港商务机飞行模拟学习中心正式开业。中心将首次在亚洲使用 D 级全程飞行模拟器培训湾流 G450 型和 G550 型飞机的驾驶员。此前一直在美国进行的飞行培训现移驻新开业的香港飞行学习中心，将使飞行员和航空技师在学习上更得近水楼台之便。
香港和中国大陆共有 80 架上下的湾流飞机在运营，整个亚太地区则有 175 架。湾流公司在该地区拥有不可小觑的市场份额，大型商务喷气机的占有率达 48%。
“我们很高兴能够携手飞安公司为飞行员和飞行学员们提供培训，”湾流公司总裁 Larry Flynn 表示。“这是亚洲首个专门用于商务喷气机驾驶员培训的模拟器，另外，作为该地区领先的市场参与者，我们对启动这项培训充满期待。”
投运新模拟器表明，湾流与飞安两大公司已开始携手争取该地区增长迅速的客户群。过去五年，飞安为当地湾流飞机驾驶员提供的培训活动增加了 230%。2011 年的课程数量达 4000 场，包括 700 场面向飞行员、维修技师和航空专业人士等湾流飞机运营者及后勤服务者的课程。
可互换的湾流 G450 和 G550 模拟器配备湾流公司最新的飞行模拟技术，包括 VITAl X 目视系统及电子传动与操控加载技术。
“G450 和 G550 是我们在亚洲最受欢迎的机型之一，这有赖于二者的州际飞行能力、迅捷的速度，以及高度的可靠性和舒适感，” Flynn说道， “G450 能够以 0.80 马赫的速度航行 8061 公里，可承运香港至莫斯科或香港至珀斯的航线； G550 的航程则达到 12501 公里，可以轻松搭载八名乘客和四名机组成员，往来香港至檀香山或香港至巴黎的航线。”
