Regional Airlines Fly Nearly 50% of US Flights

Friday, February 01, 2008

So you want to be an airline pilot....make a great salary with excellent benefits, wear the uniform, make your family proud, and be respected by everyone...all in all, have a great career? 

Your first job after pilot training -- and do call Phoenix East Aviation now to learn about starting your pilot training right away  -- will quite possibly be a regional airline.  Regional airlines are headquartered and fly all over the country, and those airlines are growing faster than any other category of commercial aviation: that means they especially need pilots and are often ready to take new pilots almost right out of flight school. 

Do you realize that the number of regional jets operating in the US account for nearly 50% of all flights and about 40% of the total US airline fleet.  More than 70% of the communities across the country receive scheduled service exclusively on regional aircraft. Phoenix East partners with regional airlines to help you get a job as quickly as possible. These airlines like to hire Phoenix East graduates, we've been told, because of the superior flight training we provide. See www.pea.com for more information.

Phoenix East made dreams come true. As a former flight student and flight instructor at Phoenix East Aviation, I have to give PEA all the credit for making my dreams come true. Phoenix East provided me with very professional and timely flight training. Included in my course was the B-727 airline training program that prepared me for the big jets and an airline job. The fact that I was given the opportunity to work as an instructor after graduation made me obtain the necessary experience and flight hours to become eligible for an airline job. In my Scandinavian Airlines interview, the Captain made a great point of me being a graduate of Phoenix East Aviation. He said that he had seen a lot of highly qualified applicants come from Phoenix East. Well, I got the job. Today I’m a First Officer on an MD-88 for Scandinavian Airlines and I love it.
