Past event: Military Flight Training 2015 Conference

The Military Flight Training Community’s Annual General Meeting For The Discussion Of Military Fixed Wing And Rotary Flight Training Requirements, Capabilities And Technologies

Over its 14 year history Military Flight Training Community’s Annual General Meeting, bringing together over 220 Chiefs of Staff, Commanders of Air Training, Heads of Air Procurement, Operational Trainers and industry executives from across the globe to discuss the challenges and success shaping military flight training for now and the future.

In doing so it provides a rare platform to share lessons learned and best practice in current fixed wing and rotary military flight training requirements, capabilities and programmes, engaging in international collaboration on a very real level with key allies and strengthen the message of cooperation with counterparts across the world.

Military Flight Training is organized with the support and direction of Senior Leaders from across the military and industry sectors of the flight training community. With this in mind, each presentation topic and guest speaker has been specifically selected inline with the priorities and recommendations of the community to ensure it provides attendees with the critical information they need to solve their daily flight training challenges.




“The Military Flight Training conference helps me to understand what industry can provide. It helps us to have a dialogue so that the industry knows what the operator thinks is important.”
Brigadier General Scott Vander Hamm, Director Plans, Programs, Requirements and Assessments, HQ Air Education and Training Command, US Air Force

“Networking with different branches of military aviation here, it’s good to hear where they’re standing, where they’re looking to go, what technology the new world has to offer. It’s good for us to have that roadmap.”
Lieutenant Colonel Osama Elwefati, Libyan Air Force
