Why Choose A320 Type Rating?

Type Rating certification is essential for a pilot if they want a career as an airline pilot. Investing in the A320 Type Rating proves advantageous for the following reasons.

Leader in the Market

The A320 Family order book at the end of February 2024 stood at 18,460 aircraft, making it the world’s best-selling commercial aircraft. In 2023, customers worldwide ordered more than 1,800 aircraft

Fly-By-Wire Aircraft

    The training is remarkable.

    I had the opportunity to do a Type Rating on the Airbus A320 at BAA Training after having successfully passed the Avion Express selection. BAA Training was the logical choice and, in hindsight, certainly the best. The quality of the training was remarkable, a complex programme optimally organised. Qualified instructors with a wide and varied range of experience, high-level and responsive management. The school has a beautiful and functional building, and the simulators are great. The tools provided are largely as expected, which greatly enhances the learning experience. The experience with BAA Training has definitely been a very good one. Theoretical training takes place online and in person with almost daily supervision, and the instructors really help us. The simulator sessions are also well organised, with periods of rest in order to acquire the learning material. The instructors are of a very high quality and in addition to the learning we have a lot of fun. The Airbus A320 Type Rating at BAA Training has been an enriching experience for me on both a professional and a personal level. The quality of the training enabled me to obtain an A320 First Officer position.

    BAA Training is the best A320 Type Rating provider.

    I did my A320 Type Rating with SmartLynx at the BAA Training center in Barcelona. I signed my contract with the airline to be a First Officer, only a few weeks after the end of the training. Before entering BAA Training, I asked for information, ‘cause for me, BAA Training was the best A320 Type Rating provider for cadet pilots with many opportunities at the end of the training. All the people from BAA Training I met in Barcelona were kind and always here to help. For me, the Type Rating was awesome. Of course, that meant a lot of personal work, but in matters of subjects, time of learning, and behavior, it was just perfect for me!

    Everybody is involved in the students' success.

    In December, Avion Express contacted me to have an assessment with them, and I successfully completed it in March. I chose BAA Training as my training provider because the Avion Express Cadet Program is in collaboration with the academy for the Type Rating (Airbus A320). There is a very high quality of training. All the instructors have important experience with thousands of flight hours on Airbus. They really push us to give the best, and they explain every exercise in a positive way. The full flight simulators are impressive by how realistic they are, so that we can be really immersed inside the A320 cockpit. I would like to highlight the professionalism of the BAA Training team, which is always mindful of our well-being. Also, Vilnius’ environment is really nice because of this city's and country's atmosphere, where we can feel that we are welcome here. This Type Rating program meets my expectations because we are going through everything, and everybody is involved in the students' success.
