Flight Training - September 2013 - 47

career objective of pursuing a
professional flying career with
the airlines because of the ATP
requirement. We have seen a
reduction in our enrollment for
the flight program the last two
to three years. It is difficult to
determine if this is due to the ATP
requirement, the high cost of pilot
training, or the economic conditions. I suspect it is a combination
of all of these issues.”
Northwest Michigan College Director of Aviation Aaron
Cook says, “The new first officer
requirements have not adversely
impacted our enrollment, which
has increased 30 to 40 percent
over last year, and the existing
students have not reacted negatively. What we are really talking
about is an extra year of flight
instruction, banner towing, or

charter flying. I think we can
all say that it increases experience and allows for another year
of professional advancement to
handle the very unique issues
airline pilots face today.”
Mark Willette, associate director of aeronautics at Jacksonville
University, says he hasn’t seen
a change in students’ positions
on career choices as a result of
the ATP rule. “Most students
I have spoken with are of the
opinion that, once the adverse
manifestations of the rule are felt,
commercial carriers will press for
a modification of the legislation.
If the rule stands as published,
the travelling public will be
adversely affected.”
Juan Merkt, director and associate professor of aeronautics at
the university, is working to take

the sting out of the rule’s impact
by positioning the school as a
good place to be because of its
direct track relations with carriers
such as ExpressJet, Cape Air, and
JetBlue.
It’s not yet clear how the ATP
rule will reverberate through the
flight lines at the nation’s aviation
collegiate programs.
There was a time you could not
even get a résumé through the
door at Air Wisconsin or other
regional airlines without 2,000
hours of total time and 500 hours
of multi. We did it then.
We can probably do it now
if commitment and financial
resources hold out.
Wayne Phillips is an airline transport
pilot with Boeing 737 and Falcon 20 type
ratings.
