From 1965 to the present day

In 1965 the company started training pilots and technicians with the

production of helicopters AB205, AB206, SH3D and AB412. At the beginning

customers were trained by production technicians and test pilots to maintain

and fly their own helicopters.

In 1967 the Training Centre started operating more organically under the

name “Agusta School for Pilots and Technicians”. The main office was in

Cascina Costa with a branch office at the Frosinone plant.

In 1992 all work was assimilated into the “Agusta Training Centre”, located at

the Caproni plant in Somma Lombardo.

In 2005, following a major increase in work, the Centre was relocated to the

old SIAI Marchetti plant in Sesto Calende. Flying work was carried out at the

airfields in Cascina Costa and Vergiate and at Cameri military airport in the

province of Novara.

In July 2006 AgustaWestland and Finmeccanica officially opened the

“Training Academy Alessandro Marchetti” in Sesto Calende.

The Società Idrovolanti Alta Italia (SIAI) was founded in 1915 in Sesto Calende. In

1922, Alessandro Marchetti took responsibility as Technical Director and co-owner,

and under his guide SIAI (in the meantime named SIAI Marchetti) launched first-

class aircraft production, such as S51 (Schneider trophy), S55 (1933: a fleet of 24

aircraft crossing Atlantic), S.79 (Damned Hunchback), etc. which made aviation

history.
