Recent articles in The Wall Street Journal and The Baltimore Sun state that fast-growing foreign airlines and growth in U.S. discount airlines have led to a surge in demand for pilots. In the U.S., some regional airlines (generally, those using aircraft with 100 seats or less) have lowered their experience level requirements. Overseas, India and Australia are experiencing a shortage of pilots. According to the Baltimore Sun “AMR Corp.’s American Eagle Airlines hired more than 500 pilots this year [2007] — one-sixth of its total rank of 3,000 pilots. About 170 pilots were called back up to American Airlines, and about 30 others per month found jobs elsewhere.” In short, demand for pilots is high and the pool of pilots is small. This would seem to suggest that now is a good time for those interested in making a career out of flying.See also: http://www.baltimoresun.com/business/careers/bal-pilots1224,0,807212.story?coll=bal_sports_util Pilot shortage to intensify

One of the best things about the internet is connecting with others that have the same interest. Here on Pilot Journey we have been hosting pilot forums since 2001. Pilot Forums let you connect with other pilots or soon to be pilots and learn more about flying.
Learning about flying from others not only can save you money but it makes it more fun. Come visit the pilot forums today.
How does it do this? In academia it is called a reflective journal and the idea is that if you write down what you experienced after a learning event you will remember more about that flight lesson. Here is a link to a complete article about reflective journals on Pilot Journey.
And at the same time you can share your learn to fly expereince with others which could inspire them to take the plunge and be a pilot! Our service is TOTALLY free and we do not even have any ads on your blog. You can pick from 5 or so themes with different airplanes on them and the blog really look good too!
if you do not want an airplane theme you can choose from hundreds of themes because we use WordPress for our blogging platform here. To get started with your own blog, you will need to download the Pilot Tool bar that has the login information on it. (it is on the menu under the Pilot Journey logo)
Not sure if you all saw this or not but we do have an online seminar/interview we did with a college about financial for flight training. It is meant for career flight training though.
