The new facility, which will be their fifth in the USA, is in proximity to Gulfstream’s headquarters in Georgia, and appears to show their confidence in future opportunities and business growth alongside Gulfstream.

CAE anticipates the new state-of-the-art training center will be fully operational in mid-2023, and house “four Gulfstream-family full flight simulators (FFSs)” in addition to maintenance training devices, briefing rooms, and classrooms.
CAE was founded in 1947 in Canada, and boasts a workforce of about 13,000 employees across 180 sites and training facilities in 35 or so countries. They also conduct airline and business jet pilot training, most notably initial/recurrent training for Jet Blue.

Gulfstream Aerospace, a subsidiary of General Dynamics, was founded in 1958 has just over 13,000 employees operating out of nine service centers world-wide and one component repair facility.
