The long awaited Senate enquiry into pilot training and airline safety has recommended that an ATPL should be the minimum licence standard for copilots on "high capacity" RPT jet airliners such as the Boeing 737 and Airbus A320.
Boeing warns airlines time's running out for training
Airlines are seeing greater numbers of their pilots being poached by competing carriers, a sure sign that the long-expected pilot shortage is kicking in despite continued economic gloom in the US and Europe.
The comments from Boeing Flight Services vice-president Sherry Carbary came at the release the 2011 version of Boeing's annually updated analysis of the airline industry's growing needs for skilled personnel such as pilots and technicians over the next 20 years. In 2010 Boeing's study predicted a need for 446,500 new pilots over the next 20 years, but now Carbary says that has risen to 459,600. Boeing's prediction for the number of fully trained technicians airlines will need has climbed from 596,500 to 650,000.
The average annual training need to meet that demand is 23,000 new pilots and 32,000 new technicians
A new report compiled by the CSIRO and a host of airline and industry groups has deemed 'bio-derived' fuel "economically and environmentally" sustainable, with a number of benefits tipped for both Australian and New Zealand.
The Flight Path to Sustainable Aviation (FPSA) report aims to set out a clear pathway for establishing a bio-fuel industry in the region, with several flow-on effects to be seen over the next 20 years. Included are cutting greenhouse gas emissions by 17 per cent, generating more than 12,000 jobs and reducing Australia's reliance on fuel imports by $2 billion per annum.
