Abu Dhabi flight school Project Aviation has signed a contract for one Diamond DA42 aircraft and two DA40s.

“The DA42s align perfectly with Project Aviation's goal to offer premium-quality flight training in the best-equipped training aircraft on the market,” says Abdulla Al Zaabi, Project Aviation's founder and owner. “We're looking forward to taking receipt of the aircraft next year.”

Diamond Aircraft's single-engine DA40 and twin-engine DA42 piston aircraft are used worldwide by preeminent flight schools to train the next generation of pilots. Powered by jet-fuel for maximum efficiency and sustainability, and featuring state-of-the-art Garmin glass-cockpit avionics, they provide the best flight training performance characteristics and safety record in the industry.

“We are thrilled by the rapidly growing popularity Diamond Aircraft is enjoying in the UAE and wider Middle East region, especially in the private market,” comments Jane Wang, director sales, marketing and flight ops at Diamond Aircraft Austria. “We'd like to wish Project Aviation the utmost success as it embarks on its exciting new endeavour and thank it for placing its trust in Diamond Aircraft. With so many Diamond aircraft already proving their mettle in flight schools across the region, we know it has made the right choice.”

Further to the purchase of the DA40 and DA42 aircraft, Al Zaabi also recently took delivery of a brand new DA50 RG aircraft for private use, becoming the UAE's first owner of Diamond Aircraft's newest aircraft model.
