CAE is a global leader in aviation training with the world's largest network of civil aviation training centers.
The Bombardier CRJ-700 represents a significant evolution in regional aviation, offering increased capacity and enhanced performance compared to its smaller predecessors. This 70-seat regional airliner serves major regional carriers, providing crucial feeder services for mainline airlines while delivering improved passenger comfort and operational efficiency across short to medium-haul routes.
CRJ-700 simulator training exclusively utilizes Level D full flight simulators, providing the highest fidelity training experience available for regional aircraft operations. These advanced simulators deliver precise aircraft handling characteristics and comprehensive systems modeling, ensuring pilots receive optimal preparation for complex operational scenarios.
The CRJ-700 type rating program typically spans 16-20 days, incorporating advanced ground instruction with intensive simulator training sessions. The comprehensive curriculum addresses the aircraft's enhanced systems complexity while building proficiency in regional airline operational procedures and safety protocols.
Training modules include advanced avionics management, regional airline operational procedures, challenging airport approaches, and comprehensive emergency response protocols. Specific emphasis is placed on engine failure procedures, electrical system malfunctions, and adverse weather operations common in regional service. Crew resource management components stress effective teamwork, communication strategies, and workload management techniques essential for maintaining safety standards in demanding regional airline environments with multiple daily flight segments.
