At a recent Washington State Aviation Alliance member meeting, the northwest regional representative for the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) Kristi Ivy showed us a 4-minute video targeting today’s high school and college students.
The airline industry isn’t the only segment of aviation looking for personnel.
Business aviation also has a significant need. And NBAA has multiple opportunities for anyone interested in what business aviation has to offer. From student membership to job boards and scholarships to mentorships, NBAA and its member companies need crew members.
If you know someone (of any age, really) who looks skyward, share this story link with them. The airline industry isn’t the only path in aviation.
There is another career that’s available to pilots and mechanics. Missionary aviation is an exciting career that combines piloting and mechanical skills into one while helping people in remote areas of the world. There is a need for more pilots and mechanics
If you want the BIG BUCKS airlines are it. No not South West. You have to fly a 777! Or work for half price in some Nearjet. Been there, done that!
If you want to be a real pilot, join the Navy and fly an F-18!
Been there, done that!
Great recommendation, but I suggest join the Marines and fly an F-18!
Every level of Aviation has it’s pros and cons. Flying airliners maybe the BIG BUCKS but you live in a different hotel every night hangin’ with flight crews. Commuters and corporate allows a little more of a HOME life. Air-Taxi is the BEST of all aviation. Plus, all the coolest and best looking pilots fly for Air-Taxis.
