ESMA Aviation Academy Teams Up with Hi-Fly Marketing to Address Training Needs of the African Aviation Market
ESMA Aviation Academy announced today the extension of its network to Africa through a representation agreement inked with Hi-Fly Marketing, a South African based aviation services company.

Priority focus will be in the areas of Maintenance and Flight Dispatcher Trainings.
