Hi my name is Austin LeBlanc! I am a Flight Instructor located at the Florida Airline Academy in Sanford. Five days a week, you can find me teaching in my favorite aircraft at the academy, the Piper Seminole. Even in sunny Florida there are days when I experience less than favorable conditions and I wanted to share my top 5 tips for switching from VFR to IFR!

Top 5 Tips - Airline Interviews

Hi, I’m Zak and I was a cadet at L3 Airline Academy, finishing training last summer and I have recently been accepted by British Airways to complete a Type Rating and then fly their short-haul Airbus fleet. I have had experience of a few different airline selection processes since starting my job hunt, so I’ve learned a few things about the process of airline interviews. Here are my Top 5 Tips for pilot job applications, and selection processes for airlines. I hope they are useful!

My name is Kate and I am a Software Engineer at L3 in Crawley. When I was in school, I had no idea what I wanted to do as a career. I did well in all of my subjects, but excelled at Maths and Physics. When it came to the end of school and choosing a career path, I was inspired by a school excursion I had taken to visit the Brisbane Gateway Bridge and the oil Refinery. The realisation that I could contribute to large, complex projects that would create amazing constructions and exciting innovations was inspiring. I put my name down for an Engineering degree straight away.
