Job Description The Associate in Applied Science in Airway Science Technology, Flight Emphasis program is designed to prepare students with the required Federal Aviation Administration certificates for initial employment as aircraft pilots in a wide variety of entry-level, flight- related occupations. Depending on which track students select, such occupations may include flight instructor, banner tow pilot, jump plane pilot, corporate transportation, mineral exploration and production, public service, etc. In some instances, additional specialized training will be required. Students aspiring to employ with airlines can elect to use their flight instructor certificate to help build flight time in an economical manner. Job Opportunities While the aviation industry is cyclic, affected by both economic and military implications, indicators point to an increase in pilot hiring through 2030. Job mobility within the aviation industry increases as flight experience increases. The experienced pilot who demonstrates quality flight techniques, willingness to learn, organizational skills, reliability, and good communication skills will find opportunities to advance into larger aircraft operations, or other positions within the industry such as management, business owner, sales, corporate jet operator, or systems trainer.
