Professional Aeronautics Career Outlook

Pilots wishing to fly for major airlines will face strong competition, as those firms tend to attract many more applicants than the number of job openings. Pilots who have logged the greatest number of flying hours using sophisticated equipment typically have the best prospects.

In addition to job openings arising from employment growth, opportunities will also result from the need to replace pilots who must retire at age 65.
