FOCUS: Pilot Shortage May Curb Airlines' Plans
PARIS (Dow Jones)--A worsening worldwide shortage of airline pilots could slow the aviation industry's growth and increase labor costs just as carriers are grappling with soaring fuel bills.
The Geneva-based International Air Transport Association reckons that the airline industry needs 3,000 pilots more each year than training schools can provide.
IATA's Director General Giovanni Bisignani predicted earlier this month that 19,000 pilots will have to be trained on average every year through 2026 to meet expected demand as airlines expand their fleets. That is 2,000 more than the Montreal-based organization predicted just five months ago.
