Chances are, if your country has a business aviation industry, Prince Aviation Part 147 instructors have already been there.

We’d struggle to name a European country with an established business aviation sector where we haven’t delivered at least one Part 147 training course, and our classroom has traveled well beyond Europe – with sessions held in Abu Dhabi, India, Nigeria, Taiwan, and other destinations far from home.

Prince Aviation Part 147 organization received its first certificate in 2008 from Serbia’s Civil Aviation Directorate (DCV), under the ICAO framework of the time, and training in those early years was mostly in-house, for our own engineers.

In 2014, we became an EASA – European Union Aviation Safety Agency-approved Part 147 organization and opened our courses to the wider industry.

In the twelve years since, we’ve issued more than 2,000 certificates across B1.1, B2, and C-category training, and along the way added approval from India’s DGCA, plus one-time recognitions from aviation authorities in France, Germany, Slovenia, and Austria for courses that are hard to find anywhere else in Europe.

Our type training covers combined B1/B2 courses as well as C-category General Familiarization, on aircraft ranging from the Dassault Falcon 50 and Cessna Citation family to the Embraer 135/145 and Learjet 31.

Theory can be delivered in our classroom in Belgrade, on-site at a client’s facility, or online; hands-on practical training runs either at our own Part 145 maintenance facility or wherever the client needs it.

Every course is taught by our own Part 147 instructors – working aircraft mechanics with years of hands-on experience keeping these aircraft airworthy, not classroom-only trainers.

All of this operates under EASA approval EASA.147.0104 and Serbian Directorate approval RS.147.0004, a combination that has made Prince Aviation one of the go-to Part 147 training providers for operators across the region and beyond.

One of the most geographically distant Part 147 courses we’ve done was for the “Air Asia” maintenance facility in Taiwan.

The entire Textron Aviation Cessna 525/525A/525B (Williams FJ44) training for their seven candidates – theoretical and practical – was conducted at their premises.
