ST JOHN’S, Antigua – Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of LIAT Ian Brunton revealed at least three months of training would be required for LIAT pilots to begin flying new ATR aircraft acquired by the airline.
Brunton said training is to begin with a “long three-month process, starting with the ground school” run by the manufacturer in France.
“Pilots have to go across to the training center for ground school and then for both ground and flight simulation,” Brunton said.
