MONTREAL, QUEBEC–(Marketwire – Jan. 19, 2010) – (TSX:CAE)(NYSE:CAE) – CAE today announced that it has sold Airbus A320 and A330 CAE 7000 Series full-flight simulators (FFS) to Shanghai Eastern Flight Training Company (SEFTC), the training subsidiary of China Eastern Airlines. The contract, valued at approximately C$30 million at list prices, brings the total FFS sales that CAE has announced during fiscal year 2010 to 14.

CAE also announced it received an order cancellation of one simulator that was sold during a prior fiscal year.

The A320 and A330 FFSs, as well as brief-debrief stations, will be delivered to SEFTC in 2011. The simulators will incorporate full six-degree-of-freedom CAE True electric motion systems and new-generation CAE Tropos-6000 visual systems, including liquid crystal on silicon (LCoS) projectors and 200- by 40-degree field-of-view visual displays. Both simulators will be certified to Level D, the highest qualification for flight simulators.

SEFTC currently uses six CAE-produced FFSs at its facilities at Shanghai Pudong Waigaoqiao Free Trade Zone. They include four A320 devices, an A330/340, and a Boeing 737. All feature multiple engine options and CAE Tropos visual systems.

“We are delighted that Shanghai Eastern Flight Training Company Ltd and China Eastern Airlines continue to demonstrate their confidence in CAE as a valued solutions provider for their training requirements,” said Jeff Roberts, CAE’s Group President, Civil Simulation Products, Training and Services. “As their fleet evolves to address changing market demands, CAE provides the most comprehensive portfolio of products and services, as well as the flexibility to help them adjust to operational needs.”
