Time Is Now
• Aviation Daily Reported on 3/12/08:
“U.S. airlines may have received a five-year reprieve from
scrambling to find enough pilots because of the recent
lifting of the Age 60 mandatory retirement rule, but the
pilot shortage will soon catch up.
The shortage may be more acute and imminent at the
regional airline and instructor level, but it will creep up -and quickly -- to major airlines, which need to start
planning now and considering new programs, such as
paying for training, to bring more pilots into the pool...
The cost of flight training is exorbitant. It now costs
$120,000 to $180,000 for a four-year flight education.
Students cannot borrow that much, and government
loans are limited to $25,000, says Levy. Students then
face 10 to 15 years of paying back their loans, assuming
they complete the program, and half of them do not.”

From 2008 FAA Forecast
“Student pilots are important to general aviation and
the aviation industry as a whole. In 2007,
according to statistics compiled by the FAA’s Mike
Monroney Aeronautical Center, the number of
student pilots decreased by 0.6 percent.
This is the third consecutive year of decline in this
important pilot category.
The industry has, over the past several years,
maintained several industry-wide programs
designed to attract new pilots to general aviation.
The industry is trying to stimulate interest in
flying, but the data suggest that more may need to
be done.”

Time For Change
“Without change there is no
innovation, creativity, or incentive
for improvement. Those who initiate
change will have a better
opportunity to manage the change
that is inevitable.”
