Simflightronics CorporationProfessional Flight Simulation University Training and Educational Mission Q What is this mission? Q At ERAU – “..what we do -- and do best -- is teach the science, practice, and business of aviation and aerospace” Q This could be said for all of the aviation universities Q How do we accomplish this? – Big Question!
Simflightronics CorporationProfessional Flight Simulation Business of Aviation Q We are all here because of the underlying business mission Q Objectives must be achieved in the most SAFE and EFFICIENT manner Q Safety First! Q Profitability in providing the demanded service
Simflightronics CorporationProfessional Flight Simulation Some Hard Facts Q Overall reduction in Enrollments for Collegiate Flight Training Programs, post 9/11 Q 88% of surveyed schools – “Directly effected” Q Issues Cited: • Drastically reduced domestic and International enrollments • Increased Flight Training Costs • Increased Insurance Costs • Reduced Budgets
Simflightronics CorporationProfessional Flight Simulation Effects of Economic Downturn Q Credit Crunch – Over 98% of flight students are effected Q Pilot Shortage turns into Pilot Surplus Q AIR Inc reports for 2008 year-end: • Over 6,500 pilots Furloughed or Laid-off (Over 7% of the total airline pilot work force) Q All of this effects college flight programs: • Decreased Enrollments • Decreased Completion rates • Decreased program safety and quality • Decreased employment opportunities for graduates
Simflightronics CorporationProfessional Flight Simulation Management Responsibility Q Who has the burden of maintaining an increase in enrollments? Q Who has the burden of maintaining program completion rates? Q Who has the burden of ensuring program safety and quality? Q Who has the burden of proactive strategic planning? Q Who has the burden of acquiring the state-of-the-art training equipment, while coping with tight budgets? • etc..
Simflightronics CorporationProfessional Flight Simulation Good News Q US Bureau of Labor Stastistics 2008 – 2009 Edition: • Pilot employment projected growth: 13% from 2006 to 2016 • Strong competition - Those trained on sophisticated equipment will have the best prospects
Simflightronics CorporationProfessional Flight Simulation More Good News Q Flight International recent article states: • “Favourable Prognosis” for pilot jobs • Boeing’s Alteon - “Demand for pilots over the next 20 years will be at a level that the training system will not be able to meet”. • From 2007 – 2027: • 29,400 new aircraft delivered to airlines • 360,000 new pilots needed • What about Retirements? Replacements?
Simflightronics CorporationProfessional Flight Simulation Boeing Orders Q Payload Asia Report: • Boeing 2008 total orders: 662 (reduced) • Boeing 2008 B737NG orders: 484 (most popular) – 73%
