CAREERS IN AVIATION 2012

摘要

A looming pilot shortage may have captured the headlines, but the need for skills to sustain and grow Canada's aviation sector runs much deeper. For example, Boeing estimates that over the next 20 years, airlines in Canada and the United States will have to hire more than 97,000 new pilots, many to spots left by retiring baby boomers leaving the flight deck. This time around, Canadian airlines can expect stiffer competition for homegrown talent from fast-growing carriers in the Middle East and Asia, who are already feeling the pinch of the pilot shortage, and whose recruiters have landed at major Canadian cities.
