Gol Linhas Aéreas will begin receiving crew classes at its new Training Center (CT) by the end of this month of August. The company is only waiting for Anac’s authorization to start operations on site. The expectation is that about 5 classes will be trained per week, with 25 members each. The CT is located at the company’s headquarters, next to Congonhas Airport, in São Paulo.

The new CT, inside the company’s headquarters in São Paulo, and built in an old hangar where turbine propeller maintenance was carried out, has seven theoretical classrooms, an auditorium with aircraft seats, a computer room and A mock-up of the Boeing 737 aircraft, where there are simulations of various emergency situations inside the booths for practical activities. The place, however, does not have simulators, which means that pilots flight training continues to be performed at Guarulhos Airport.

The place is an old demand of the professionals of the air, that since the closing of the place where the activities were realized in Diadema (SP) did not count on a special space for the practices of flight safety.

According to the coordinator of training of commercial crew of Gol, Cláudia Otero, the trainings have duration of 48 hours, being realized of Mondays to Fridays. “Training with mock-ups and simulations is a great differential for Gol’s crew, as it puts them in real-life situations, and can learn in practice how to handle emergency situations on board. It’s a dream come true, “he said.

Cláudia also stressed that the inauguration of the CT with the fuselage and mock-up of the aircraft of Gol is of enormous advance and convenience, since there is no longer the need to paralyze the operation of an aircraft of the fleet to conduct the trainings. “The great differential is in the location, which can gather even more Gol crew and provide the whole structure to carry out the training of real situations in a convenient way. Outside the auditorium with a fuselage, where practical evaluations will occur, “concluded the executive.
