CAE: a history still in the making

Looking back, looking forward

Six short decades ago, on March 17, 1947, CAE was founded on the determination and vision of ex-Royal Canadian Air Force officer, Ken Patrick. Assembling what he called “a war-trained team that was extremely innovative and very technology-intensive”, CAE quickly demonstrated the vigour, imagination and diligence that would propel it to its position today as a global leader in simulation and modelling technologies, and integrated training services for civil aviation and defence customers. Over the years, CAE has applied its talent and imagination to a surprisingly diverse range of technologies and applications. But while much has changed, CAE’s most important attributes remain constant. Today, as we look back, we also look forward with optimism and enthusiasm, confident in the knowledge that the spirit that has powered this company to the pinnacle of its success is alive and well. The momentum is here, and our future is written in the story of our past. We invite you to join us on our journey.
