The world’s airlines will need 27,000 new pilots by this time next year, and 219,000 of NEWS them by the end of the decade – but don’t go 4 News Round Up wasting your money training to be an airline 4 Gazette pilot, as there’s going to be a glut of them for the next ten years! Existing pilots on furlough, recently made redundant or whose employers are on the brink or collapse, pilots part-way through their training, and those yet to embark on a flying career could all be excused for being more than a little confused by those two messages, both issued in November. Unsurprisingly, the buoyant view came from training and R101 Commemoration p5 simulation provider CAE, which has much to gain from selling its REPORTS services to pilots and their employers; and the gloomy view from 6 The Master’s Message BALPA, the British pilots’ union dedicated to protecting the 8 Regional Reports - Australia interests of its members. 9 Regional Reports - North America The core of CAE’s case lies in its prediction that global fleets will 10 Regional Reports - Hong Kong grow – despite current woes – by 7,800 airliners and 3,600 business aircraft by 2029, and in the numbers of pilots who will 11 Ron W Bridge - Obituary retire or otherwise leave the industry in that time. With median 12 From the Desk of the DAA ages of pilots being 46 in airlines and 49 on business aircraft, 14 Space Group CAE predicts that 38% of the current 333,000 airline pilots, and 16 Young Air Pilots Report a massive 76% of 54,000 business-aircraft pilots, will have retired 17 Trophies and Awards 2020 and need replacing by 2029. It bases its estimates of demand for new pilots on crew ratios varying between ten and 17 per Omani crew features in aircraft for new airliners and two to four for business machines. FEATURES Trophies & Awards p17 Against those optimistic numbers, BALPA says there are already 10,000 unemployed commercial pilots in Europe alone, and more in training for whom there are currently few prospects of a job, or even of completing their training. It encourages those contemplating spending £100,000 or more on training to think again, and urges them to get experience in another profession – or at least follow a modular training route - while the industry goes through its current low patch, giving them the option of something to fall back on if pilot jobs don’t materialise. It is possible that either, both or neither of these messages eventually will prove to be correct: what is true in the meantime is that on its own neither is helpful to a pilot community in 27 Member Profile: Simon Rolfe turmoil. The challenge to the whole industry – including our own 28 Encounters of an Aviation Kind Company – is: can we reach a consensus view of the future, in a 30 Command and Control constantly changing present, to give sound guidance to those 32 Into the Overshoot whose futures currently lie in such confusion?
