Dear
Students, Air travel is taking off and
bustling, more so now that we are approaching the year end festivities! It
wasn’t long ago when the aerospace industry was severely hit by Covid-19 that
led to the suspension in air travel for over 2 years. The interruption in
flight activities took a toll on not just the airlines, but the entire value
chain including Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO), support services and
training companies. As air travel rebounds, the
high-margin services industry is picking up its pace to fill the gap caused
by the pandemic. This presents an attractive opportunity for companies like
U.S. plane maker, Boeing Co. In 2021, it was forecasted that the industry
needs around 626,000 new aviation maintenance technicians over the next two
decades to support the global commercial aviation fleet. Beyond MRO, we are also seeing a
global shortage of pilots. According to Statista’s outlook for 2029, Asia Pacific
is projected to see the largest pilot shortage in the world, requiring over
22,000 pilots to fill demand in the aviation industry. On the other end,
North America will also need over 20,600 pilots to fill up the pilot demand
in the region.
We
are now living in the greatest technological era with many advanced aircraft
such as the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF), B787 and A350. If you would like be
