Ponte de Sor, Portugal, will soon host a new aviation academy with an investment of up to €4M. Located within the Aeronautical Cluster, the project spans 4,000 sqm and aims to become Europe’s most sustainable flight training center. Backed by FlyIAA’s international standards, the academy will combine advanced technology, eco‑friendly practices, and high‑quality instruction to train the next generation of aviation professionals.
At Dubai Airshow 2025, the Aviator Fund was launched as a new aviation investment platform targeting 10% annual asset‑backed yields. Focused on Diamond and Elixir training aircraft under long‑term lease agreements, the fund provides investors with resilient exposure to the $25B global pilot‑training market. Backed by aviation and finance leaders, the initiative combines disciplined asset management with strong investor protections, aligning with FlyIAA’s mission to power global pilot development.
