Pakistan is set to begin exporting trained pilots to foreign airlines as part of a new initiative aimed at strengthening its aviation industry and increasing foreign exchange earnings. The Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority (PCAA) has announced plans to send qualified pilots abroad to meet the growing demand for aviation professionals in the international market.
With an increasing number of foreign airlines seeking skilled pilots, Pakistan’s well-established pilot training institutions are expected to play a pivotal role in providing qualified candidates. The move is expected to not only enhance Pakistan’s reputation in the global aviation industry but also generate significant revenue through employment opportunities for local pilots.
Officials have stated that the first batch of trained pilots will be sent to airlines in the Middle East, Asia, and Europe, where there is a demand for experienced professionals. The PCAA is also working closely with the Ministry of Aviation to ensure that the training programs meet international standards and that pilots are well-prepared for global aviation operations.
This initiative is expected to provide a significant boost to Pakistan’s economy by tapping into the growing demand for pilots worldwide. It also opens up new career avenues for Pakistan’s youth in the aviation sector.
