发帖数: 1 | 1 United Airlines is now accepting applications for its new flight school as
part of a new push to train 5,000 new pilots by 2030.
The airline announced in February 2020 that it had purchased the Westwind
School of Aeronautics, which was renamed to the Aviate Academy. The flight
school's launch was delayed due to COVID-19's impact on travel demand.
However, travel demand is growing as COVID-19 vaccine distribution is
ramping up across the United States, with over 167 million doses adminstered
to date, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
At least half of the applicants accepted will be women or people of color,
and no prior flight experience is needed. All students will be guaranteed a
job with the airline, contingent upon completion of the Aviate program.
The Aviate Academy will enroll 100 students in 2021, with the school's first
class of 20 pilots set to begin their studies in the third quarter in
Phoenix. The class will graduate sometime in the first half of 2022.
United declined to say how much its academy will cost, but noted that the
general industry standard for training with flight schools is roughly $100,
000. | d**T
