Archer TX to Create 2,000 New Pilots Annually
Piper has nailed a large deal with AeroGuard Flight Training for 90 brand-new Archer TX aircraft, an order that will double their fleet to more than 200 of the brand's planes.
AeroGuard Flight Training Center boasts 4 campus locations, with 3 in the USA and one Saudi Arabia. Between each campus, AeroGuard trains more than 2,000 students each year, sending them onto airlines around the world. The company's partnerships with a range of international carriers has seen their alumni pass through the flight decks of Cathay Pacific, SkyWest and Korea Aerospace University.
“We are thrilled to sign this agreement with Piper Aircraft to bring 90 new Piper Archers to AeroGuard’s fleet,” said Joel Davidson, Aeroguard CEO. “This investment represents our commitment to providing our airline partners’ student pilots with every resource they need to succeed while experiencing the highest quality flight training in the world. With these additional aircraft, AeroGuard has the capacity to welcome hundreds of new airline cadets to our pilot training programs.”
“It is an honor to expand our fleet partnership with well-known Piper Flight School Alliance member, AeroGuard,” said John Calcagno, President and CEO of Piper Aircraft. “We pride ourselves in the relationships we build with schools such as AeroGuard and on the training aircraft we provide them, known for their reliability and ease of use, to train the next generation of pilots.”
