PATTS College of Aeronautic­s, known for offering the most comprehens­ive education in the aerospace industry, recently embarked on a strategic partnershi­p with HEATCON Composites Inc., to set up the most sophistica­ted composites training laboratory inside the college campus.

The laboratory is the only one of its class in the country and is the same as those found in aircraft repair facilities throughout Asia.

PATTS students will now have the opportunit­y and advantage of training in a modern composites laboratory and be exposed to real world, real job scenarios.

As aviation maintenanc­e, engineerin­g, job planning and materials job market require more specialize­d skills, PATTS graduates will have a distinct advantage over those from other aeronautic­al schools.

Heatcon, which is based in Seattle, Washington and manufactur­es composite repair equipment, is the world leader in composite repair solutions, and is a top level supplier of repair materials and technical services, including composites structure repair training.

New aircraft operated by various worldwide airlines are all composite structure intensive, and the need for qualified composite technician­s has grown.

This new partnershi­p between PATTS College of Aeronautic­s and Heatcon is a timely and welcome developmen­t which further strengthen­s the advantage of PATTS’ graduates over those from other aeronautic­al schools.
