Ten pilot-training centres in Europe, Asia and the USA are to be grouped under the Oxford Aviation Academy brand after their consolidation last year.
Oxford Aviation Academy brings together facilities previously operated by GCAT Flight Academy, Oxford Aviation Training and BAE Systems.
Investment fund Star Capital Partners formed GCAT Flight Academy last year by combining SAS Flight Academy and General Electric Commercial Aviation Training.
GCAT subsequently acquired the UK's Oxford Aviation Training and, towards the end of 2007, also picked up BAE Systems' regional aircraft training business in Manchester.
Following the acquisitions, the group has chosen to unify the facilities under a single brand.
Oxford Aviation Academy claims to be the largest independent aviation training organisation in Europe, where it has eight centres: London Heathrow and Gatwick, Copenhagen, Oslo, Stockholm, Manchester, Oxford and Riga.
It also has a Hong Kong facility and one in Arizona, USA.
Oxford Aviation Academy is still majority-owned by Star Capital and retains GE Commercial Aviation Services as a shareholder.
