US embassy cable - 04ABUDHABI2007

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

SUBJECT: CIVAIR: REQUEST FOR INFORMATION ON ABILITY OF 
EMIRATES-CAE FLIGHT TRAINING ORGANIZATION TO ENTER INTO 
INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS 
 
Ref: 93 State 344630 
 
1. The UAEG has officially responded to reftel demarche 
requesting information on whether "Emirates-CAE Flight 
Training" is an appropriate entity to enter into an 
international agreement with the FAA. 
 
2. Emirates CAE is considered as an approved training 
organization, which is authorized to conduct training, 
testing, or checking on a number of flight simulators and 
authorized to offer a number of training courses.  Emirates- 
CAE functions in partnership between Emirates Airlines and a 
Canadian company.  The UAE General Civil Aviation Authority 
(GCA) audits its programs.  CAE is also accredited by the 
British and U.S. Civil Aviation Authorities (for its 
training programs).  The GCA is prepared to sign a 
memorandum of understanding with the FAA on to audit the 
training. 
 
3. Comment:  We worked this issue through the UAE MFA as 
well as with the GCA.  The GCA has told us that it will be 
willing to enter into an agreement with the FAA on behalf of 
Emirates-CAE.  If the FAA wishes to pursue this, please 
provide post with clear instructions and a copy of the 
agreement that we can pass to the GCA for signature.
