Partnership with Directional Aviation Capital
On November 4, 2019, the Company concluded a strategic partnership with Directional Aviation Capital (DAC) including a 15-year exclusive business aviation training services agreement with DAC affiliates and the acquisition of a 50% equity interest in SIMCOM Holdings, Inc. for cash consideration of $113.5 million (US$86.3 million).
