As you know, we are amid a worldwide pilot shortage; this can be an exciting career path offered in Lancaster County for a student considering an aviation career as a professional pilot. Lancaster Airport is the 3rd busiest airport in Pennsylvania, has an FAA ATC tower, and is an excellent place to launch a career for an aspiring aviator. Although a college degree is not a requirement to become a pilot, it is perceived as preferred for aviation professionals such as commercial or corporate airline pilots, flight instructors, airport operations managers, mission aviators, aviation safety inspectors, and more. Professionals with a strong foundation in aviation and leadership principles are in demand throughout the air transport industry.
