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]
