Following a rigorous selection process to validate training programmes and quality systems, and to confirm the ability to adopt airline-styled selection criteria and training standards Air Hawke’s Bay has been appointed as an Air New Zealand Aviation Institute Flight Training Organisation (FTO) Partner. There are only five such organisations in the country.

Air New Zealand encourages students wishing to commence flight training, with the intention to become a commercial airline pilot, to enrol with an Aviation Institute’s FTO partner.

By choosing to train with an Air New Zealand Aviation Institute FTO partner, prospective pilots will be assured they are:

• Joining a flight training programme designed to produce commercial airline pilots
• Likely to succeed as they have met airline styled entry-criteria for programme selection
• Interaction with airline personnel from day one
• Be Air New Zealand’s preferred low-hour candidates for turbo-prop first officer positions in times of high demand for new pilots
