Event details

We will start with an overview of a typical day in the life of an airline pilot, describing some of the operational challenges we face and how we cope with them.

We will then broaden the scope out to look at the industry from a wider context including trends over the last 20 years and what has separated the winners from the losers. We will then take a look into the future, our big challenges in aviation, including the evolution of business models, globalisation, environmental issues - where do we go from here?
