FOCA
GCAA
We are proud to announce that we have received official approval from both the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) under Part-147 and the General Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) of the UAE under CAR-147 to deliver type training on the Airbus EC135 / H135. This dual approval places our organisation among a select group of internationally recognised Maintenance Training Organisations (MTOs) authorised to certify technicians on one of the most widely operated helicopters in the world.
What This Approval Means
EASA Part-66 is the European regulatory framework that governs the approval and oversight of maintenance training organisations, setting out strict requirements for facilities, training programmes, instructor qualifications, and examination processes. Obtaining it validates that our training meets the standards set by European aviation authorities and qualifies students towards endorsements on their EASA Part-66 Aircraft Maintenance Licence.
The GCAA CAR-147 is the UAE equivalent — a regulatory framework established by the General Civil Aviation Authority that allows organisations to provide approved training for aircraft maintenance engineers and technicians, aligned with international aviation standards and best practices. Qualifications obtained through a GCAA CAR-147 approved organisation support the GCAA CAR-66 Aircraft Maintenance Licence.
Together, these two approvals mean that technicians completing our EC135 course hold a qualification recognised across both European and UAE regulatory frameworks — giving them credentials that are valued by operators across two of the world’s most active aviation markets.
