As aviation awakens from its COVID hibernation, it’s facing a huge shortage of skilled workers across multiple professions. In this special podcast episode, host Adam Thorn speaks to William Horrocks and Leif Mawson from training organisation Aviation Australia. Their business knows all about the industry’s issues first-hand, as they work nurturing up-and-coming pilots, cabin crew, drone operators and aircraft maintenance engineers. The pair discuss why enthusiasm for the industry has never been higher among new recruits, why aviation companies need to invest more in developing talent and how Aviation Australia has evolved over its 20-year history.
