BACK TO CONTENTS

ifty years after Apollo 11 landed on the Moon in July 1969, United Airlines stands with the nation in celebration of this milestone anniversary. Beginning today and continuing throughout July, the airline, in coordination with Houston First Corporation, Space Center Houston, NASA Johnson Space Center and OTG will provide customers with a variety of opportunities to learn about and celebrate space exploration. “From the moment former President John F. Kennedy made a bold commitment to further U.S. space exploration efforts at Rice University in Houston, the city became part of the national dialogue about how and when we would put a man on the moon,” said Rodney Cox, vice president for United’s Houston hub. “Not only is the Apollo 11 mission rooted in Houston’s past, it also became part of United’s history when Astronaut Neil Armstrong later served on our Board of Directors. Knowing the deep connection both United and Houston have to this historic mission, we are honored to commemorate this remarkable accomplishment with our customers.” Planned activities include: • Inflight entertainment: A special inflight entertainment channel with 17 dedicated space-related programs developed by NASA will be accessible on all flights with seatback entertainment and personal device entertainment as early as July 1. The channel will feature documentaries about NASA’s push to the Moon, views of Earth from the Space Station, action cam footage of NASA astronaut spacewalks and more. • Dine like an astronaut: Two of the restaurants in United’s terminals at George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) in Houston – Ember and Tanglewood Grille – will feature dishes throughout July inspired by the food items the astronauts ate on board Apollo 11. To ensure authenticity, restaurant operator OTG sent their award-winning culinary team to NASA’s Space Food Systems Laboratory in Houston to learn about and taste food prepared by NASA’s food scientists. Specialty beverages, such as Tang-infused cocktails, will also be available for customers travelling through Houston to enjoy. • Digital takeover of Terminal C-North: For the month of July, each of the terminal’s gate lounge’s will be transformed into a digital art gallery hosting vivid photography from the Apollo 11 mission, while iPads at all OTG locations will feature an educational trivia game developed by Space Center Houston. • Pop-up science lab experiences: From July 9-11, Space Center Houston will provide Apollo 11-themed popup science labs throughout United’s Terminal C and E and IAH. These interactive, hands-on exhibits will let passengers of all ages explore science and engineering in fun and educational ways during their visit to IAH. • Astronaut meet and greet at IAH: Customers will have the opportunity to meet and take photos with retired Astronaut Ken Cameron. A NASA astronaut, engineer, U.S. Marine Corps officer and pilot, Cameron will meet and greet customers in the United Clubs July 9-11. • Mission: Space City celebration flight: On July 17, the same day Astronauts Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins and Edwin Buzz Aldrin made their first TV transmission from Earth to space, United will host a special celebration flight from its New York area hub at Newark Liberty International airport to Houston to recognize the historic occasion. Customers on board Flight 355 will enjoy space-themed entertainment, inflight gifts and mingle with special onboard guests who have first-hand experience in space. • Mission: Space City social media contest: Starting today, space enthusiasts will have a chance to win two seats on board the Apollo 11 celebration flight as well as a behind the scenes tour of NASA. Click here for more information. • MileagePlus Exclusives: Beginning July 1, customers will be able to bid miles on space-themed MileagePlus experiences such as VIP access to Space Center Houston’s Apollo 11 50th Anniversary Celebration featuring the band Walk the Moon. For more information, visit Exclusives.mileageplus.com/nasa. “We couldn’t be prouder of the role that Houston has played in some of the world’s biggest accomplishments, like the Apollo 11 mission,” says Brenda Bazan, President and CEO of Houston First, Corp. “During Space City Month, we’re excited to welcome visitors from around the globe. Between Space Center Houston and many world class museums, our city is a great place to satisfy a love for discovery and exploration.”

n Wednesday, June 19, United Airlines employees reached a milestone of 1 million meals packed for charity partner Rise Against Hunger, a global non-profit, working to end hunger by providing food and life-changing aid to the world’s most vulnerable and create a global commitment to mobilize critical resources. The millionth meal was packed during the airline’s annual sales conference in Anaheim, Calif. this week. This achievement is part of United’s commitment to global community engagement as well as lifting up communities in crisis after disaster. “Packing 1 million meals is a monumental milestone and as a global airline we are thrilled to partner with Rise Against Hunger to make an impact in communities in need across the world,” said Jake Cefolia, United’s senior vice president of worldwide sales. “Our annual sales conference brought together more than 800 United team members from 53 countries, providing us with an incredible opportunity for an impactful service project.” During the packing event, United employees assembled 100,000 meals to reach the goal of 1 million meals packed by the airline in partnership with Rise Against Hunger. The meal packs included enriched

rice, soy protein, dried vegetables and 23 essential vitamins and nutrients to provide a comprehensive array of micronutrients. The airline plans to continue engaging even more employees with Rise Against Hunger throughout the year, with plans to pack a minimum of ninety thousand more meals by the end of 2019. “United Airlines and their employees have been an integral part of our movement to end world hunger,” said Kate Day, interim CEO & President, Rise Against Hunger. “Through financial commitment and bringing together over 4,000 global employees to package 1 million meals, United has helped nourish the lives of 10,000 people in critical need for a full year in communities across South and Central America, Africa and Asia.” As the official airline partner of Rise Against Hunger, United employees have been packing meals for the organization since 2017.

nvoy Air Inc., the largest wholly owned regional airline subsidiary of American Airlines Group (AAG) and its Passenger Service Agents represented by Communications Workers of America (CWA) have reached a tentative agreement on their first collective bargaining agreement.

Representatives from Envoy and CWA have negotiated a six and a half year agreement that raises wages, establishes work rules, improves benefits, and job security for nearly 5,000 Envoy Passenger Service Agents in approximately 100 cities across the United States. The agreement also includes a ratification and retention bonus based on each Agent’s years of service in recognition of the time spent in negotiations and to encourage retention.

“For more than two years, CWA members at Envoy have stood strong in their fight for a contract with fair, family-sustaining wages and a contract that treats them with the respect they deserve,” said CWA President Chris Shelton. “Thanks to the dedication of our members, we now have a strong agreement that gives Envoy agents increased wages, improvements on numerous benefits, and better opportunities for agents moving forward as they continue to make Envoy successful.” CWA will share details of the agreement with union members soon, along with procedures for voting.

Envoy’s President and CEO, Pedro Fábregas, thanked both negotiating teams for their continued efforts, noting that this agreement will provide new opportunities for agents while positioning Envoy for growth. “I would like to express our appreciation to the commitment of both negotiating teams and Mike Tosi, National Mediation Board’s mediator, to resolve the outstanding issues and reach this agreement for our agents,” said Fábregas. “I look forward to the union sharing details of the deal with the membership and a successful outcome. There has been much effort and discussion behind this Agreement to satisfy all parties and establish a solid framework for a more collaborative working relationship for years to come.”

Jet Linx Voluntarily Grounds Fleet for Annual Safety Summit Private Aviation Leader Brings All Employees Together to Focus on its Industry Pioneering Safety Standards

22 | Aero Crew News

BACK TO CONTENTS

et Linx, the third largest aircraft management company in the United States (Part 135), further established its position today as the leading company in private aviation by dedicating the entire day to advancing the private aviation industry’s most rigorous safety standards during its annual Safety Summit. Jet Linx is reinforcing its unwavering pledge to delivering the highest standard of safety by voluntarily grounding its fleet of 100+ aircraft to bring together all of its 500+ employees to focus on safety. This is the third consecutive year for the Summit and Jet Linx remains the only air carrier in the United States to implement such a standard. The focus of Jet Linx’s third annual Safety Summit is safety culture, safety management, and how to identify potential hazards. The day includes a special keynote session from Jim Hall, former National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) Chairman, on organizational contributing factors in aviation safety. “Since the inception of Jet Linx 20 years ago, safety has been the cornerstone of our company. Our annual Safety Summit allows us to continue advancing best safety practices and standards of excellence across the entire organization,” said Jamie Walker, President & CEO of Jet Linx. “As a leader in the industry, it is our responsibility to hold ourselves accountable and further the highest safety standards. We are proud to invest considerable time, energy and financial resources in order to deliver our aircraft owners and Jet Card members with the confidence that they are flying with the industry’s best.”

The Safety Summit is co-led this year by Sheryl Clarke, Jet Linx’s newly appointed Director of Safety & Security, who is responsible for leading the Safety Department and the continued enhancement of Jet Linx’s safety programs to ensure that every measure is taken to meet and exceed government regulations. Clarke joins Jet Linx from United Airlines, where she was Managing Director of Airport Operations Safety and Compliance, managing all safety efforts for the 337 airports served by the airline. As a rated Airline Transport Pilot, B-707, B-720 and EMB-145, and a United States Air Force (USAF) Academy graduate, Clarke has logged 7,500 Pilot-in-Command (PIC) hours commercially and 1,800 PIC hours in the USAF, with additional certifications from the NTSB, Department of Transportation (DOT), Safety Management Systems (SMS) and Human Factors Analysis (HFACS). “I am thrilled to be joining Jet Linx at such a significant moment to help the company continue to transform the private aviation industry,” said Clarke. “Jet Linx has managed to pursue a nationwide expansion while demonstrating an unwavering commitment to ensuring the safety of their clients, pilots and team. I am proud to be working with Jet Linx to continue to drive the industry standards for safety and security.” Clarke’s executive appointment comes as Jet Linx celebrates its continued expansion into new markets, including Austin, Boston, Chicago, and New York, and planned future locations in Florida and California. For more information, please visit www.jetlinx.com.

“Jet Linx has taken all the right steps in setting the precedent of making safety the number one priority. While there is no perfect way to implement a safety management system, Jet Linx is moving in the right direction, and perhaps most importantly, calling on others to do the same,” said Hall. “For Jet Linx to reach out and encourage the prioritization of passenger and employee safety at the highest level in their effort to improve operations across this industry is impressive.”

Derecho! L W r i t t e n B y: A n t h o n y L o r e n t i

ast month, I wrote about large-scale, long-lived, convective complexes; Mesoscale Convective Systems (MCS) and Mesoscale Convective Complexes (MCC). To review, as a pilot, you must know of their presence and you must give them the widest berth possible. Delaying, diverting or cancelling a flight are all legitimate options owed to the formidability of these aerial monsters. Here, I will add to the discussion by addressing an offspring of these systems. This spawn is called a “derecho” (deh-RE-cho). First coined in 1888 by Dr. Gustavus Hinrichs, a physics professor at the University of Iowa, the term was derived from the Spanish word for “direct” or “straight ahead” in contrast to the word tornado, which derives from the Spanish word meaning “to turn.” A derecho is a widespread, convectively-induced windstorm. The derecho can be thought of as a gust front that lasts for several hours, sweeps hundreds to possibly over 1,000 miles across the land, generates winds in excess of 50 knots and wreaks large-scale destruction. For a more technical definition and many case studies see: www.spc.noaa.gov/misc/abtderechos/ derechofacts.htm. You’ll see that neither your airplane nor house should not be in the path of a derecho, but since we can’t move a house, always think about moving your airplane. Your first line of defense in dealing with a derecho is to know what produces them. Derechos can result from MCS/MCC. If you know what to look for, you can find the culprits by checking the weather. Hopefully, you know the website www. aviationweather.gov and the various weather products to use to begin your hunt. In addition to looking at the Storm Prediction Center’s Convective Outlook, the Enhanced Convective Outlook Page (TCF/ECFP), the current Convective SIGMETS and the radar, look at the various satellite images for these connective blobs (MCC/MCS). From all of this, you just might come across the mention of a derecho in the making, but currently, there is no forecast product for derechos. Reading about derechos, you’ll find a few common themes; downbursts and bow echoes. Downbursts are obvious hazards to airplanes and therefore don’t merit further discussion, but bow echoes do. When you look at ground-based weather radar, be on the lookout for the backward “C” in the radar return. (Bow echoes are

named for the shape of an archer’s bow.) You will often find this radar signature leading the precipitation shield on a complex of storms. There is much to learn about why this signature can mean trouble (upper level winds being transferred to the ground). Heed my warning, this may be the signature of a potential derecho. This should be your indicator to dig deeper into your weather briefing. Also, let it be your reason to avoid bow echoes when you are flying. Another note regarding ground radar and the potential presence of derechos: Sometimes on radar, you can see what are called “out-flow boundaries.” These are often echoes of light precipitation that precede a parent thunderstorm complex in the form of another backward C, well ahead of the main event. This too can be an indicator of a derecho. To be clear, this backward C is a very light radar return when compared to the previously discussed radar return. A derecho can outpace its parent thunderstorm complex by at least a few miles. You should be alert to this when checking METARS and setting up for a takeoff or landing. While your destination may be in the clear as far as the precipitation shield goes, it may not clear be in terms of wind hazards. Don’t be caught off-guard or lulled into false security because the weather hasn’t yet hit. In the case of a derecho, it may have. Derechos are the spawn of Mesoscale Convective Systems and Complexes. Derecho’s are long-lived, long duration windstorms. They are in the family with gust fronts, microbursts and bow echoes. What I’ve shared with you is just the very basic information about derechos and weather in general. My job is to heighten your awareness of weather and to help you respect it. I hope to guide you to learn more.

2. Pilot Fitness Counseling Sometimes you just need to talk to an expert. Pilot Fitness has a counseling program that connects flight crews to licensed mental health professionals. It is a referral service only. Your name need not ever be disclosed to Pilot Fitness (unless you voluntarily so choose). It is completely confidential. The program requires zero commitment. All you need is an email to sign up, and they will connect you immediately to a mental health professional who understands the unique struggles of flight or cabin crew. This program even comes with a 40% off crew discount!

3. E-Courses Pilot Fitness partnered with nutritionists to create easy-to-use, interactive, health and fitness courses for pilots and flight attendants. The courses include Habit Building, Exercise Basics, and Seated Exercises. The courses are inexpensive. They focus on flight crewrelated issues (such as injury prevention).

If I Could Tell Every Airline Pilot One Thing... Saving strategies for today that will ease tomorrowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s burden W r i t t e n B y: C h a r l i e M a t t i n g l y

July 2019 | 35

f I could tell every airline pilot one thing it would be, save more money! I know it’s not rocket science, but like eating healthy and exercising – it’s not easy to do!

As a Certified Financial Planner professional and an airline pilot myself, I understand how saving more can be a major challenge. If you’re just starting out with the airlines, you’ll make a lot more money as your career progresses but saving the right amount is never easy! I bet you won’t be surprised to know that some of these challenges are our own – new car, vacations, airplanes … In addition to our own limitations and difficulties, the IRS caps your qualified retirement contributions annually. Here, I’ll discuss three steps to maximize your savings and investing opportunities that will not only allow you to invest more now but can also greatly reduce your taxes in retirement. 1. Every airline pilot, regardless of income, can and should contribute to their non-tax-deductible IRA. 2. You need a taxable brokerage account in addition to your 401k and IRAs. 3. Build tax diversification into your savings now so you’ll potentially pay less income taxes in retirement.

Why save more...? Many airline pilots we work with have been employed by multiple airlines in their careers. Typically, this means they have had to start over with savings and investing multiple times. Furthermore, most airline pilots at major airlines made a transition from either the regionals, corporate or military careers. Most likely, those pilots took pay cuts to make the move to their major airline of choice. There are two important takeaways from this: 1) If you are a young pilot aspiring to work at a major airline, save your money now for that eventual transition, and 2) If you are a more senior airline pilot, but because of our tumultuous industry you were late to start saving for retirement, simply maximizing your qualified retirement accounts may not be enough.

Every airline pilot, regardless of income, can and should contribute to their non-tax-deductible IRA

IRA, as well as a Roth IRA. However, anyone, regardless of income, can contribute to a non-tax-deductible IRA. Although contributing to a non-tax-deductible IRA is beneficial, the best reason to contribute is to then convert your traditional IRA to a Roth IRA. This strategy is commonly referred to as the backdoor Roth IRA. There are no income limits on converting your traditional IRA to a Roth IRA, however there are a few things to consider before you choose to execute the backdoor Roth IRA strategy. The process of converting your traditional IRA to a Roth IRA can be simple, but make sure you are aware of the tax rules that pertain to Roth IRA conversions. For example; • If you already have other IRA accounts, then all or a portion of your conversion to Roth IRA could be taxable. • One strategy to possibly avoid this taxation is to consider rolling your pre-tax IRA into your company’s 401k plan and then executing the backdoor Roth IRA the following calendar year. • Seek advice from your financial advisor or tax professional to make sure you follow IRS guidelines and make sure to correctly document the Roth IRA conversion on your tax return.

You need a taxable brokerage account in addition to your 401k and IRAs. There is no IRS limit to how much you can save in a taxable brokerage account. You can withdraw your money anytime without penalties and there are very few limitations on your investment choices. You will not receive a tax deduction for your contributions to a taxable brokerage account, however, these accounts have other great tax advantages. Essentially, you can create your own tax deferral on the growth of your investments as well as enjoy lower capital gains tax rates if you invest using low cost exchange traded funds (ETFs), individual stocks or low-turnover stock mutual funds. Make sure to avoid short-term capital gains by holding your investments for at least one year. Once you withdraw or sell the investments in your taxable brokerage account you’ll pay capital gains tax rates which are typically lower than ordinary income tax rates for a retired airline pilot.

I’ve found that some pilots with whom I’ve flown believe they make too much money to contribute to an IRA. Not true! Many pilots misunderstand the tax rules for contributing to IRAs. It is true that most airline pilot incomes are too high to contribute to a tax-deductible

Build tax diversification now so you’ll pay less income taxes in retirement. Sometimes we forget the entire reason for saving and investing now is to create your own paycheck during retirement. You can significantly reduce the income taxes in your retirement if you are intentional now and have a plan. Your goal should be to fill up at least three different types of investment accounts in order to increase tax diversification and potentially reduce your largest expense in retirement – taxes! 1. Pre-Tax 401k: Ordinary income tax rates upon withdrawal in retirement 2. Roth IRA and/or Roth 401k: Tax free in retirement 3. Taxable brokerage account: Capital gains tax rates Bonus savings account: If it is appropriate for your family’s health care, consider using your airline’s high deductible health care plan so you can take advantage of the health savings account (HSA). The HSA is the only account with triple tax savings. They are tax deductible, they enjoy tax-free growth, and are tax free anytime they are used for qualified medical expenses.

Different types of investments involve varying degrees of risk and there can be no assurance that the future performance of any specific investment, investment strategy, or product made reference to directly or indirectly in this article will be profitable, equal any corresponding indicated historical performance level(s), or be suitable for your portfolio.

One of your largest expenses (second only to taxes) in retirement will most likely be your healthcare expenses. Personally, I use my HSA as a healthcare 401k. Furthermore, once I turn age 65 I can use the funds from my HSA for any expenses with the understanding that I will pay ordinary income taxes on the gains if I use the funds for anything other than healthcare expenses. Please reach out to us anytime. We’d love to hear from you because we’re here to help you navigate to your savings destination. Fly safe!

PERSPECTIVES

Learning to (just) Fly Enjoy this great moment in our industry W r i t t e n B y: K r i s t o p h e r O l s o n

e are flying in some of the best times seen in our industry. Airlines are reporting billions in profits (Southwest FY2018 $2.4 billion; United FY2018 $2.1 billion; American FY2018 $1.4 billion), and new aircraft orders are fueling growth at many levels of the airline industry. Some examples include Frontier ordering 134 Airbus aircraft with the intent to triple in size over ten years; American awarding Envoy with E175s and Delta’s purchase of 100 A321neos with the option for 100 more. While the airlines aim to grow, they must contend with the rapid retirement of the most senior crew members. The “Big Three”– American, Delta, and United – will replace roughly half their pilot staff over the next decade or so. They have devised many different strategies to ensure a steady stream of pilots reach their flight decks. American has the well-known “flow” program with Envoy, PSA and Piedmont. For its part, Delta introduced the Propel program which offers competitive financing for training and the opportunity to reach a Delta cockpit within 42 months. Other airlines are offering flows, training agreements or significant hiring bonuses including JetBlue, Frontier, almost all regional airlines, and even UPS.

This translates into job openings for aspiring pilots at all levels, from flight instructors to first officers. Some airlines are even hiring pilots straight into captains’ seats as “direct-entry captains.” This progression has helped create a diverse group of pilots in today’s flight decks, including career-changers, those who have returned after a hiatus and many young first officers recently graduated from an aeronautical university. These are exciting times to be an airline pilot. Amid this good news, do not forget that it could all end and inevitably, it will. Oil prices could shock our industry as they have before. Airlines grow and they also downsize. Ours is a volatile industry, and that mustn’t be forgotten. While you may be experiencing good times at your airline, things may not be ideal at other carriers. Some regionals face uncertain contracts with their major partners. Some airlines are struggling through mergers while others have been mired in stagnation for decades. Many aspiring pilots struggle with the cost of training. I don’t mean to be dour, however what I am saying is, enjoy the ride. Don’t fret too much over poor contract negotiations or your struggle to get hired by your dream airline. You didn’t become an airline pilot to talk about contract negotiations (I hope!). You became an airline pilot to travel the world, fly fast machines, have amazing views and work with amazing people providing safe, comfortable travel to passengers. Do your job the best you can every day. Each day get up and be the best you can be in your role. Improve yourself each day. More than anything else, appreciate the times we are living in, because we may not experience them again for years. One day we will all hang up our wings and look back upon these golden ages.

Dreams To Careers

The Organization of Black Aerospace Professionals (OBAP) builds on its 43-year history of readying members to meet the needs of a rapidly changing aviation industry Writ ten By Shalishah Fr a nklin

hat began as a modest mission, nearly 43 years ago, has grown into an international non-profit organization with more than 3,000 diverse aerospace professionals serving as members and role models for generations to come. In 1976, Ben Thomas, a young African American pilot with Eastern Airlines, spearheaded an effort to form a permanent body to address discrimination in the airline industry. He invited thirty-seven African American pilots, representing nearly 50% of Blacks in the industry at the time, to convene at O-Hare Hilton Hotel in Chicago on September 17th and 18th.

However, our commitment to kids begins earlier! Since 2015, more than 110,000 elementary school-aged children have met an aerospace professional within their school. Aerospace Professionals in Schools (APIS) is a pillar of our organization and each year more than 200 OBAP members spend some of their free time paying it forward through exciting presentations and introductions to the world of aviation and aerospace. This year, OBAP piloted an initiative to take APIS internationally with unforgettable school visits in Jamaica, Senegal, Zambia, and Trinidad and Tobago. According to the U.S. Census Bureau of Labor Statistics, African Americans make up less than 3% of airline pilots. The majority of that precious population are proud OBAP members whose careers have been sparked, or simply propelled forward through our organizationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s presence in their schools, communities, colleges and professions.

This historical meeting resulted in the formation of The Organization of Black Airline Pilots (OBAP), now called, The Organization of Black Aerospace Professionals. OBAPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mission focused on preparing youth and young adults to realize successful careers in aerospace. The organization quickly became a prominent advocate and thought-leader for improving conditions industry-wide. Then in 1992, OBAP solidified its commitment to helping more youth, particularly minorities, gain exposure and opportunities in aviation by forming a partnership with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to implement some of the first Aviation Career Education (ACE) Academies. Now in more than 30 cities each summer, including St. Croix and San Juan, Puerto Rico, the OBAP ACE Academy welcomes about 560 students. Countless OBAP members like Brianna Adams, a flight attendant with Delta Air Lines, were bitten by the aviation bug after participating in an OBAP ACE Academy as a teenager.

The first time twin pilots Jalal Paul and Jamil Paul, from Hackensack, New Jersey, met an African American pilot was an at OBAP Convention. They were seventeen. That dream-affirming experience led the brothers to join the organization and soak up the opportunities. They participated in OBAP’s Collegiate Series before graduating from the University of Dubuque with double majors in Flight Operations and Aviation Management. Both were awarded OBAP Scholarships; Jamil won the Horizon Air Pilot Scholarship in 2015, and Jalal won the Brandon C. Francisco Achievement Scholarship in 2016. Also a year a part, each secured internships in the EWR CPO program with United Airlines. Now first officers at regional carriers, these unstoppable brothers spend free time volunteering through APIS, and working toward their mutual goal of one day flying for United as captain and first officer on the same flight. The escalating costs and multi-year commitment for flight training is often an enormous obstacle for aspiring aviators. Over the last five years OBAP has awarded more than $660,000 in scholarships to 125 recipients. Romullo Silva, a native of Brazil, successfully earned his private pilot license and instrument ratings with the support of scholarships. In 2018, Romullo won the One United Family Scholarship, valued at $10,000, which supported him through his commercial pilot license. Romullo recently shared, “Winning this scholarship will take me to the professionals. I will be a professional pilot and it will change the life of my family.” Romullo has since obtained all his type ratings and is accruing flight time in Houston, Tex. with plans to impress recruiters and secure his first airline job during OBAP’s 43rd Annual Convention in Los Angeles. Naveed Baksh, a 2017 FedEx 757/767 Type Rating scholarship recipient, shared, “The scholarship that I received dawns a career that holds nothing but endless possibilities, some of the greatest academic and social experiences of my life, and some friends whom I will cherish as long as I live.” After rigorous training, interviews and more, Naveed was hired by FedEx. He credits the scholarship for providing him an opportunity that otherwise would not have existed for him. "It can seem a bit cliché to say that a scholarship changed my life, but it certainly has," Naveed said.

We’re passionate about making opportunities more accessible and reducing barriers to participation and we invite you to join us. To learn more about OBAP and to become a member, visit obap.org.

Industry forecasts suggest an impending shortage of airline pilots, maintenance technicians and commercial cabin crew, due to the growth and broadening of the aerospace industry, coupled with the fact over the next 20 years, many pilots will retire. Last year, OBAP amplified its commitment to supporting, training, educating and mentoring the next generation of professionals with the establishment of the Lt. Col. Luke Weathers Flight Academy in Olive Branch, Miss., just minutes from Memphis, Tenn. Our new academy, named for famed Tuskegee Airman and the first African American Air Traffic Specialist in Memphis, is on a mission to offer cost-effective training that leads to increased diversity in the industry. So far, we’ve trained students to earn six Private Pilot Licenses, one Commercial Pilot License, three Certified Flight Instructors, two Certified Flight Instructor - Instruments, one Certified Flight Multi-Engines Instructor, three Instrument Ratings and 11 solo flight experiences. In addition, we’re just getting started. Contact: Shalishah Franklin press@obap.org | 213-949-3204

THE GRID

Regional Airlines

he following pages contain over 30 different contractual comparisons for 22 separate regional airlines. Almost all the data was collected from each individual airline’s contract. Our goal is to provide you with the most current, up-to-date data so that, as a pilot, you can choose the right airline for you. Every pilot looks for something different from the airline they work for. Whether it’s living in base, maximizing your pay, or chasing that quick upgrade, we will have the most latest information. To do this, we are working with the airlines to ensure this data is current and correct. Good luck and fly safe!
