BOEING Co, the world's second-biggest planemaker, said about 185,600 new pilots will be needed in the Asia-Pacific region within the next two decades as economic growth encourages more people to travel by air.
China will lead growth in the region, with 71,300 pilots in demand through 2030, Boeing said in a statement yesterday. The region will also need an extra 243,500 technicians in the period, with 99,400 in China, it said.
"Asia is where the growth is," Bob Bellitto, global sales director for Boeing's flight services, said in Singapore. "We can sell new airplanes, but if we don't have enough people to maintain them or people to fly them, they're going to sit on the ground."
Boeing forecasts demand for pilots and technicians will be the greatest in Asia-Pacific as the region will get 12,030 planes of the 34,000 to be delivered in the period.
