TF1 report: “Will there be a pilot on the plane this summer?”

TF1 devotes a report to the airline pilot shortage, a phenomenon expected to intensify over the coming years.

The lack of qualified pilots to meet flight demand is a major challenge for the air transport industry. Airlines are looking for ways to attract and retain pilots, notably by raising pay and encouraging young people to consider a career in the cockpit.

In this context, training schools play a decisive role. Astonfly, the group's flight school, trains new classes of professional pilots every year, with courses designed in direct connection with airline expectations.

This report confirms a trend we have observed for several months: the recovery in air traffic comes with a structural need for pilots, and therefore sustained demand for training.
