Institut aéronautique Jean Mermoz (IAJM) is a flight training organisation and resourcing services. Professional airline pilots have been trained at IAJM since 1957.[2] Its name is from the French aviator Jean Mermoz.
The school is well known for its aviation books. Published in French, since 2016 the books have also been available in English thanks to a partnership agreement with the École nationale de l'aviation civile (French Civil Aviation University).[3] The first English books were published at the Paris Air Show 2017, in partnership with Airbus.[4] The school has an agreement with the aerospace college IPSA for a double-degree Master of Science in aviation / ATPL.[5]
One third of French airline pilots have been trained at Institut Mermoz.[citation needed]
