Airport and Aviation Management students spent the day in London at Emirates Aviation Experience.
The visit was a part of their Aviation Professional Practice module in which the students are asked to develop training packs for a selection of careers within the industry. Being able to experience first-hand the different elements that make up Emirates, one of the biggest airlines in the world, allows the students to see the full range of careers available within the sector.
Students explored the centre, viewed aviation exhibits and learned about what happens to an aircraft whilst it’s on the ground. They also saw the range of inflight entertainment available and how the airline incorporates the latest technology into its services. A highlight of the day was having the opportunity to pilot Emirates’ flight simulator and discover what it’s like to captain an Airbus A380.
