Careers in Aviation
By Silas Reed
Aviation is an industry which is basically related to flying. There are many projects in US which are related to aviation. Today, mostly due to advancement in technology and shortage of time, people prefer flying by air rather than traveling through any other means of transport. Moreover, the cost of air fare has also decreased and one can see a steady increase in number of people traveling through air. So, the aviation industry is booming in the present time. It is not only the most optimal means of transport in terms of passengers but nowadays mostly cargo transportation is sent through aviation.

Pilot qualities and qualifications

If one is in U.S. and wishes to be a pilot it is necessary to posses a legal U.S. pilot's license. This license should be coupled with current medical certification. The pilot should also possess ratings appropriate as well as instrument rating to the particular aircraft which the pilot intends to fly. Moreover, in order to qualify for flying one should have never had their flying license revoked or suspended. It is also necessary that no FAA enforcement is against the pilot. That means the pilot should have a clean flying record.

Physical requirements of pilot

Apart from other qualifications there are certain physical requirements which are required to be fulfilled by a pilot in order to gain eligibility. These physical requirements are specified below:
