Singapore Polytechnic bags RSAF's AS332 helicopter to boost aerospace curriculum

The helicopter will provide hands-on training for over 330 students annually.

Singapore Polytechnic (SP) signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Republic of Singapore Air Force and received an AS332 Super Puma helicopter to enhance its aeronautical and aerospace diplomas.

The helicopter will be used to conduct integrated operations with the Singapore Army and support search and rescue missions, providing hands-on learning opportunities for more than 330 students annually.

Students from the Diploma in Aeronautical Engineering (DARE) and Diploma in Aerospace Electronics (DASE) programmes will benefit from this practical training in aircraft aerodynamics, aircraft systems, ground support equipment, and avionics.

Since November 2010, more than 13,800 DARE and DASE students in over 14 batches have used the UH-1 Iroquois helicopter for hands-on aircraft maintenance training.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
