Biggest Hiring Boom in History, Now is the time to become a Pilot

“Every action has an opposite but equal reaction”, said Sir Isaac Newton in his work Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica, first published on July 5, 1687. At least, that’s the simplified version of Newton’s Third Law.   And, Sir Isaac is being proven correct again, or, at least many leaders in the aviation industry seem to believe so.

Following a four year drought of job opportunities, the airlines are set for a major upswing in pilot hiring.  Boeing has forecasted the need for more than 460,000 commercial pilots by 2029.  Not only are aircraft manufacturers seeing this need, so are the companies that provide career services for aviators.

Getting back to Newton’s Third Law again, some say the last four years of depressed pilot hiring will be replaced with 10 years of a pilot hiring bonanza, quite possibly the largest boom in the industry’s history.

Reasons for the boom include:

  • A large pool of current U.S. pilots who are getting ready to retire
  • Increased travel to and within Asia
  • An improving U.S. economy
  • Of course, don’t forget all that is happening from an aviation standpoint within both India and China
