Apollo Aircraft Maintenance and FTA Global are pleased to announce that they have now merged as a single business. The aircraft maintenance company and flight school have always worked closely together, referring to each other as ‘sister’ organisations. The change means that Apollo Aircraft Maintenance, now FTA Maintenance, has become the school’s dedicated maintenance division.

The acquisition is part of a host of changes FTA Global are introducing. They have recently refurbished their facilities and added to both their training fleet and flight instruction team. Having a dedicated team of engineers on site is a major benefit to a busy flight school, as Managing Director for FTA Global, Sean Jacob, explains:

“An effective service and maintenance provision for our flight school is integral to our business. This month our company flew almost 1,000 hours, which is a record for FTA Global. Safety and efficiency are core values our businesses share. Engineering excellence and operational efficiency is a significant asset which is appreciated by our students.”

Sussex-based flight school FTA Global has announced excellent pass rates and exam averages. The results are especially impressive given the global crisis and the negative impact it could have had on the staff and students.  

Sussex-based commercial flight training school, FTA commemorated the official reopening of their main building, and the heart of their flight school, Wingfield House at Brighton City Airport. 

Earlier this year FTA Global introduced a ground school experience like no other – nine months of blended, instructor-led tuition underpinned with computer-based training and e-learning material.

FTA Global have been delivering world-class commercial pilot training for 15 years.

The company has gone from strength to strength, continually investing in its fleet, staff and premises, with plans for significant growth in the next five years.

Despite the unquestionable disruption that the Coronavirus is having on countries around the world, FTA Global remains operational and now provides theoretical instruction online, via remote teaching through virtual classrooms.

As a company, we join the global community in combatting a time of unprecedented strain to our health and socioeconomic environment. It is without question that Covid-19 will affect us all in some way.
