Welcome to the October Issue of The BAC Bulletin & DA News! In many respects, it’s a great time to be a pilot, especially if you enjoy being busy as the FAA predicts the number of generall aviation hours flown to increase an average of 2.2 percent per year through 2031. But will there be enough pilots to meet future demand? In this issue, we look at the pilot shortage controversy. We also remind you that the FAA’s 2011 General Aviation Survey is now online. Check out some photos for our recent fly-in. 68 and Counting! Thank you for all who already fanned us on our Facebook page! Help us get more fans by sharing our Facebook page with your friends! Safe flying, Lynda & Santo Silvestro
The Pilot Shortage — Is It Real and What Could It Mean?
The FAA is asking aircraft owners and operators to fill out the FAA’s 34th annual general aviation Part 135 survey for 2011 data. The survey is important and the only source of current information about the entire GA fleet. Access the survey here.
If you or someone you know is interested in flight training or needs a flight review, look no further than the Certified Flight Instructors located at Business Aircraft Center at Danbury Municipal Airport. Curtiss Aero has a fleet that includes SR20, SR22 and SR22T aircraft, and its instructors have over 1000+ combined hours of experience and most are previous Military or Airline Pilots.
