The Airline Transition Manual includes all that you need to know to survive your first year on the line and guidance for best managing your airline career. Whether you are coming from a military or civilian aviation background, or if you are looking to move into the airline industry, this is a must-have reference. Transitioning from flight instructing and commercial flight operations, or service life and military-style flying into airline flying and the airline industry, can be a challenging evolution. The Airline Transition Manual was written by airline pilots to help aviation professionals glide more smoothly into their new careers. Covering topics from training to scheduling, commuting to crashpads, interviewing and jumpseating, unions and medical certification, this book contains the tips, tripwires, tribal knowledge, and the information you need to create a clear, controlable path. It is a crucial resource for navigating your future as you prepare to don the uniform of an airline pilot.
Though principally aimed at transitioning service members and commercial pilots, the information contained in this book is valuable to anyone planning for a career in the airlines or preparing others for the airline profession. Dispatchers, planners, crew schedulers, managers, members of airline union staff, as well as instructors and students in professional flight and aviation management and technology programs will benefit from the vast information and insights included in the book.
