Instructor job situation over next 12-24 months
Hello all,
I am interested in your opinions on the demand for FI's in the next year or two....
This type of question has come up often before, but please bear with me - I am interested in gaining the FI rating in preference to the instrument rating, but feel a little in the dark about the chances out there of the 'big break'.
The feeling coming through from other forums within pprune is that airline recruitment is going on, the situation generally improving...My thoughts were that there are bound to be a fair amount of instructors out there who will be part of that movement, and will need replacing.
Lastly I had heard some contributors even going so far as to say there may be an instructor shortage, brought about by the extra expense and greater regulation of JAA licencing? Any thoughts?
Looking forward to your discussion of the above.
Cheers,
Laurie.
