Slow downs, pauses, and hiring...oh my!

Mar 15, 2024 • 22 mins

In this episode, Adam Uhan discusses the current state of the aviation industry, recent changes, and the release of the TPNX app. He provides a historical perspective on the airline industry, invites industry experts, and predicts market trends. The episode also offers career advice for aspiring pilots, explores other opportunities in aviation, and discusses how The Pilot Network supports pilots.

Key Points

  • The Pilot Network Expo (TPNX) is experiencing changes with airline attendance, such as Delta Airlines not being able to participate in TPNX 2024 due to changes in their business and hiring plans, while other airlines like Southwest and American continue their active involvement.
  • The airline industry is cyclical and currently undergoing a slowdown, affecting hiring trends and causing airlines to adjust their operations, which pilots should monitor and consider when planning their careers.
  • Pilots are encouraged to explore the breadth of opportunities within the aviation industry, beyond their initial aspirations, and to adapt by considering different career paths that align with their life stages and personal circumstances.

Alright everyone, the game is changing...at least a little bit. Let's not get too crazy; the Dude abides. This is just a little chat to soothe those jangled nerves and hack the clock.

This industry is cyclical and we have seen slow downs in the hiring wave before. It was time for a little chat to discuss what is going on, how I see it. It's probably wrong and crystal balls are pretty useless, but it's a good pre-primer for TPNx.
