Wichita, Kan., April 2, 2009 – Cessna Aircraft Company, a Textron Inc. (NYSE: TXT) company, has appointed its third Cessna Pilot Center (CPC) in India by selecting Chimes Aviation Academy in Sagar in central India at the Dhana Airport (ICAO: VA1J).

“Demand for aviation in India continues to grow, even during these tough global economic times,” said Julie Filucci, Cessna’s manager for Cessna Pilot Centers. “Chimes Aviation Academy is a world-class training facility with a team of talented aviation specialists that will work well with Cessna’s exclusive training curriculum.”

“We aim to create a world-class, global-scale pilot training academy,” said Uday Punj, director of Chimes Aviation Pvt. Ltd. “We are driving a culture of excellence in all facets of flight training, beginning with our fleet of brand-new single-engine Cessna 172 aircraft with Garmin G1000 integrated class cockpits. With our appointment as a Cessna Pilot Center, Chimes Aviation Academy is poised toward redefining the paradigm of pilot training in India. We look forward to a fruitful partnership with Cessna Aircraft Company in achieving our aim of imparting safe and comprehensive flying training and providing the highest quality of service to our customers.”

Chimes Aviation Academy is the third CPC established in India, following the appointment of Amber Aviation in Uttrakhand and Touchwood Aviation Academy in Raipur in 2008. There are nearly 280 Cessna Pilot Centers in nine countries, including Australia, Germany, the Czech Republic, Canada, Chile, Jamaica, Mexico, South Africa and the United States.

Cessna Pilot Centers are independently owned and are the only flight schools to use Cessna’s integrated computer-based instruction.
