Singapore Polytechnic bags RSAF's AS332 helicopter to boost aerospace curriculum

The helicopter will provide hands-on training for over 330 students annually.

Singapore Polytechnic (SP) signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Republic of Singapore Air Force and received an AS332 Super Puma helicopter to enhance its aeronautical and aerospace diplomas.

The helicopter will be used to conduct integrated operations with the Singapore Army and support search and rescue missions, providing hands-on learning opportunities for more than 330 students annually.

Students from the Diploma in Aeronautical Engineering (DARE) and Diploma in Aerospace Electronics (DASE) programmes will benefit from this practical training in aircraft aerodynamics, aircraft systems, ground support equipment, and avionics.

Since November 2010, more than 13,800 DARE and DASE students in over 14 batches have used the UH-1 Iroquois helicopter for hands-on aircraft maintenance training.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
