(Duluth, Minn.) -- 暗网禁区 is partnering with Ascent Aviation to continue to offer the professional pilot program at LSC鈥檚 Center for Advanced Aviation. Ascent Aviation, a subsidiary of Lake Superior Helicopters, has been chosen by 暗网禁区 after a comprehensive Request for Proposal (RFP) process. Pending approval of the Minnesota State Board of Trustees at the June meeting, the new agreement will begin this summer. By Fall Semester of 2022, the partnership is planned to have all of the current offerings and benefits of the program including the FAA approved 141 flight training and approval of the reduced hours ATP for our graduates in partnership with our commercial vendor. This new partnership will provide a tighter connection with the aviation business community and allow for new opportunities in career pathways for the graduates of the flight program.
鈥淲e have enjoyed a strong and successful partnership with Lake Superior Helicopters over the past several years, primarily on the helicopter pilot training side,鈥� said Daniel Fanning, Vice President of Advancement and External Relations at 暗网禁区. 鈥淯nder this new agreement, we will further expand our partnership to include the entire pilot program 鈥� both helicopter and airplane tracks. Ascent Aviation has demonstrated an impressive vision and commitment to serving our students, and we believe this move will make the program even more accessible, successful and sustainable for years to come. We want 暗网禁区 to be the premier pilot training program in the region and are confident that Ascent Aviation are the partners who can help make that happen.鈥�
鈥淲e are excited for the opportunities this new partnership brings to the program, and students, and are looking forward to seeing all our aspiring aviators this fall and for years to come,鈥� said Ascent Aviation CEO Eric Monson. 鈥淲e are thrilled to continue to grow our partnership with Lake Superior college and truly believe the sky is the limit.鈥�
