Boeing will relocate all full-flight simulators and other devices from Seattle to Miami, starting with two 787 training suites. Miami is Boeing’s largest commercial aviation training campus and is a preferred training location for customers based in Latin America, the U.S., the Middle East and Europe.
“This is about getting close to our customers, doing what is right for them and bringing them the best product support and services in the industry,” said Sherry Carbary, vice president, flight services, commercial aviation services.
The Miami facility is one of the largest commercial flight training campuses in the world.
