Mumbai, April 15, 2026 — CAE and InterGlobe Enterprises have inaugurated a new pilot training centre in Mumbai to support India’s rapidly growing aviation sector.
The 44,000-square-foot facility, operated through their joint venture, will initially feature one Airbus A320 full-flight simulator, with a second to be added later this year and capacity to expand to six over time. The centre strengthens CAE’s training network in India, which already includes locations in Greater Noida, Gurugram, and Bengaluru.
The expansion comes as India’s aviation market continues to grow, with demand expected for around 22,000 new pilots by 2034. The new centre aims to enhance domestic training capacity, enabling airlines to meet operational and regulatory requirements more efficiently.
CAE said the investment reinforces its commitment to high-quality pilot training and supports the development of skilled aviation professionals in one of the world’s fastest-growing markets.
