The Oxford Aviation Academy based at Oxford Airport near Kidlington has been bought up by a Canadian company.
The business, which trains hundreds of pilots every year, was bought by civil aviation training firm CAE for £195m.
As well as Oxford Airport, the Oxford Aviation Academy has nine other sites around the world.
CAE president Marc Parent said: “We are very excited about this acquisition as it enables us to offer customers more locations as well as a new service for pilot and maintenance crew sourcing.”
