Pilot Job Growth | Phoenix East Aviation

Demand for Pilots Continues to Grow

Growing Businesses Spurs Pilot Demand

As wait times at US airports increase, businesses are developing new aviation solutions to meet the needs of their managers and key professionals. Private jet charters are experiencing a surge in demand as corporations seek to increase productivity.

This is having a positive impact on the demand for professional pilots. It also means great job opportunities for those looking for a career in aviation.

One of the leaders in this emerging business is Blue Star Jets, which has been featured recently on CNBC and magazines. Blue Star sells fast and efficient charter services to corporate clients on the move.

As more and more businesses take advantage of charter services, more aircraft will be added to charter company fleets, and the need for pilots will increase.

With strong growth in the private jet sector, more people flying, and the explosive growth in China and Asia, the job of airline pilot and the charter pilot will remain in high demand.

My name is Jason Prestigiacomo and I’m a First Officer for United Express Airlines, operated by Air Wisconsin Airlines. I’m currently based in Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport flying the CRJ. This assignment was made easier because of the flight training I received at Phoenix East Aviation, Daytona Beach, Florida. Career instructors like other flight schools do not run the flight department at PEA. Former airline pilots run it. These pilots have built up thousands of hours in some of the world’s largest and most advanced airliners and know first hand how to make the transition into the airline industry. All of the training is based upon airline standards, which makes things much easier when you step into your first airline or corporate job.

I looked into other flight schools and selected PEA because of their laid-back operation and job placement statistics. I attained all of my certificates and ratings at PEA, and then took a job with them as a Flight Instructor in 2001. If your goal is to become a Boeing 747 Captain or just a weekend pilot, Phoenix East Aviation is the school for you.
