Airborne-Flight Training 04.04.24: ALPA Refutes Shortage, FAA Grants, WAI24

Also: Fired Boeing Pilots Win, MAC Air Group, Kansas State Salina $$, Drone Safety Day

The Air Line Pilots Association says they have plenty of pilots, so there's no need to change anything about the aviation system from top to bottom. 

They publicized the fact that "the United States continues to certify more airline pilots each month than in the years prior to COVID-19", noting that the last 12 months have seen more than 11,000 ATP-MEL ratings issued. The FAA has granted $27.2 million to 11 universities across the US under its Aviation Sustainability Center program. The awards will be matched in-kind by a range of partners with a 1:1 grant as a sort of cost sharing agreement. Women in Aviation International capped off its 2024 Conference with a flurry of activity, completing its year get-together for the 35th year running - and things were busier than ever. The Conference saw some record attendance and exhibition numbers, with more than 5,200 attendees representing 35 countries. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
