The 737, reportedly the largest aircraft to land at Jandakot, retains its full 100-seat airliner interior, and joins Polytechnic West’s Beech Barron and Cessna 340 training aids.
“The jet will be maintained in a fully serviceable condition at Jandakot Airport, the location of the Polytechnic’s new Aerospace Training Centre,” McKie said. “The Boeing will also allow PWA to undertake a range of non-engineering skills training, including cabin crew safety and ground handling.”
