You may be new to EFT — but we’re not new to ambition. Our mission is simple: to become the best in flight test training and support. That means hard work, real accountability and a team you can count on. We give everything to help you reach your goals — and often, just a little more.

Rolf Hellbutsch, Accountable Manager

Training in flight test is not just about passing knowledge — it’s about building confidence, precision, and operational judgment. At EFT, we design every course to be demanding, relevant, and directly applicable. As Head of Training, my goal is simple: to make sure our participants leave ready for the mission — not just qualified, but capable.

Dr. Dieter Reisinger, Head of Training

At EFT, I focus on building a strong theoretical foundation that supports safe, effective flight testing. Seeing our students connect rigorous academic principles with hands-on practice is what makes this role so fulfilling.

Peter Hemmert, Chief Theoretical Knowledge Instructor
