As usual at the turn of the year, it is good to look back at the road traveled — to reflect on the
main events of the past year and to look ahead to the many opportunities that lie ahead in the
new year.
It can be said that the year 2025 was divided into two distinct phases in V-ONE’s operations.
The first part of the year was characterized by extensive B757 and B767 training for our
partners at DHL Austria and DHL Bahrain, while the latter part of the year was relatively quieter
for these operators.
The relocation of CAE/Icelandair’s B767 flight simulator from Iceland to Amsterdam naturally
resulted in several changes to our operations and required a reorganization of our cooperation
with DHL Bahrain. This work is now largely complete, and several V-ONE instructors will spend
part of their time in Amsterdam over the coming months to conduct B767 training there.
After a relatively quiet autumn, our friends in Austria have now set their sights on a significant
expansion of their pilot workforce, with corresponding B757 training planned over the coming
months in cooperation with V-ONE.
While new training activity was limited during the second half of the year, this provided a
valuable opportunity to expand our instructor authorizations to include Airbus A320 training. In
addition, approvals for instruction and renewal of SFI/TRI qualifications were extended, and
older syllabi were updated.
V-ONE ATO looks to 2026 with optimism and looks forward to continued cooperation with
existing partners, while also pursuing exciting opportunities with new customers and new aircraft
types — YES WE CAN.
Thank you for the cooperation over the past year, and we extend our best wishes for a happy
new year!
