Based on CAE’s 2023 Aviation Talent Forecast, more than 8,000 pilots and 10,000 technicians will need to be recruited and trained for European business aviation operations in less than 10 years. The company expects the worldwide business aircraft fleet to grow 18% by 2032, “with up to 26,000 business jets in service and the need for more than 100,000 new business aviation professionals to be recruited.”

CAE continues to build more aircraft simulators and open training facilities around the world to help meet the growing demand for business aviation pilots and technicians. “All we do is based on where we see demand,” said CAE business aviation division president Alexandre Prévost.
