Fearless Tower
Touchdown! Greaser!
This is mostly directed at those that are actually in the flight training business. What do you think the future of pilot training is in the US?
GA is obviously not thriving, but I don't believe it will disappear. Regardless of automation, I don't see airlines and other commercial operations not needing some form of trained pilots in my lifetime.
But how will the face of flight training look in, say 20 years? Will it be primarily big schools with feeder agreements to airlines? College flight programs? Will there be a place for the small class G airport based mom and pop flight schools in the year 2035?
Thoughts?
