Description

As part of the modular curriculum for Swansea University’s MEng (Hons) and BEng (Hons) Aerospace Engineering degrees (both accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE), and the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS)), Level 4 undergraduates are required to undertake 1 light aircraft flying lesson of 30 minutes, covering ‘basic handling’ of the aircraft and ‘air experience’, as part of their first year of studies. This amounts to approximately 267 students per academic year, experiencing one lesson each, spread across the 3 academic terms (October to June). Since no lessons were undertaken during the past academic year, there is a backlog of an additional 267 students also needing lessons during this coming 2023/24 academic year and the first year of this contract. The Aerospace Engineering department within the University’s Faculty of Science and Engineering has now awarded a suitably qualified, insured and equipped flying centre with the appropriate staff, aircraft, equipment and facilities in place with the capacity to service our requirements and deliver lessons to this number of students. The contract duration will be for an initial 2 academic years as from October…
