The Academy will add 25 new, state-of-the art Cirrus TRAC SR20 training aircraft to its current fleet of 25, with the option to purchase up to 50 more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>United Aviate Academy has already received more than 12,000 applications since announcing the school in April 2021. The school officially opened in January and welcomed a historic inaugural class of future pilots, part of the airline\u2019s goal to train at least 5,000 new pilots at the school by 2030.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2022\/02\/united-plans-to-expand-service-to-cape-town.html\">United Plans to Expand Service to Cape Town With Year-Round, Non-Stop Flights From New York.<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>United Aviate Academy also recently purchased seven state-of-the-art FRASCA simulators, including some with 220-degree wraparound displays, with the first of these brand-new flight simulators arriving in April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re investing in flight education as we train the next generation of United Airlines pilots, who are the future of our airline,\u201d said Bryan Quigley, United\u2019s Senior Vice President for Flight Operations for United Airlines. \u201cThese student pilots are receiving world-class flight training at United Aviate Academy and I\u2019m looking forward to the day when they join our current United pilots on the flight deck.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"
