I came across a speech from Capt Sullenberger which resonated greatly with me. This weeks podcast will be about pilot training. The quality, the standards and the speed at which it is conducted. What experience and hours are needed, what is enough to do the job? It’s concerning many in the industry including myself as I have already alluded to and we all need to work together to turn things around.

In episode six I discussed how to go about applying for your first job in aviation, or any subsequent job for that matter. However, what happens once you get that job? How do you prepare?
