Korea Airports Corporation Provides Refresh Training for Pilot Trainees

[Asia Economy Reporter Yoo Hyun-seok] Korea Airports Corporation announced that from the 9th to the 16th, it will provide free 'refresh training' for graduates of the corporation's Aviation Training Center pilot training course (Jet Transition Course).

The refresh training is aimed at Jet Transition Course graduates who have not yet found employment due to reduced hiring of co-pilots by airlines caused by COVID-19. Trainees will complete flight proficiency maintenance courses using flight simulators, including ▲instrument takeoff and landing, ▲maneuver training, and ▲abnormal situation response training.

The corporation has been offering free training twice a year since 2020 to help pilot training graduates avoid difficulties caused by gaps in flight experience when applying for airline jobs, and actively supports pilot trainees' employment through consulting and other necessary assistance.

President Yoon Hyung-jung emphasized, "We are playing a stepping stone role by promoting flight proficiency maintenance training that helps pilots find employment in line with the resumption of international flights," adding, "We will continue to provide multifaceted support for the recovery of the aviation industry."
