The Flight Mentoring Project
As world peace comes about, there will be a need for changes in the aviation industry, and for more pilots to be trained. The present structure is inadequate, and can be oppressive to the travelers. Fights are channeled through hubs, which are huge airports located far from the city, making it a burden just to get to the airport. Charters and fractional jets have been offered, but are too expensive for the average businessperson. In the future, the trend will be to go to smaller planes and smaller airports, and more global travel as the international government makes business easier.
Present training consists of joining the military and transitioning to commercial aviation, or taking lessons from a flying school, which is very expensive. This leaves out lower income people, including people from third world countries.
The Flight Mentoring plan is based on an idea from the past, where the masters taught the apprentices their craft. We would like to create guilds to pass on the knowledge to the students, allowing them to function on a far higher level than the present training structure.
