"Aviation is an increasingly integral part of life, and Tempus will build on Redbird's migration flight training philosophy and apply it across the spectrum of flight training operations to meet the increased demand for pilots."
The Tempus-led flight school will continue to use and test Redbird's simulators, proficiency-based curriculum and Redbird's diesel Redhawk aircraft while offering pilot training at all levels under FAA Part 61 and Part 141 regulations.
