Top 5 Career Opportunities in the Future of Aviation Industry

Aviation, the thing itself is a miracle for Human beings, thanks to Leonardo da Vinci who made this imagination first and to the Wright brothers who made flight possible for Human beings. Technological innovations made humans reach great heights. These achievements opened new prospects for aspiring aviation professionals. New technologies demand new technicians, operators, developers etc. — thereby opening new career prospects in this exciting industry.

Recently the Aviation Industry suffered a massive blow due to pandemics but as it is often said “Every action has an equal and opposite reaction”. This statement may prove to be true for the aviation industry, innovations that are made will be the turning point of the aviation industry. So here are the top 5 out of many opportunities:

A blockchain is a distributed database that is shared among the nodes of a computer network.  As a database, a blockchain stores information electronically in digital format. This has been in use not only in the aviation industry but also in every industrial sector that has a huge market share.

The aviation industry deals with a lot of data and it needs to be properly dealt with with utmost sincerity. This technology can be extremely useful in building a robust security system for managing customer data. Blockchain technology opens new opportunities to the management professionals that want to join the aviation industry with proper blockchain management the aviation professionals will be highly benefitted. This branch in the aviation industry provides a lot and maybe in future, this will be completely on its feet.

2. Robotics

Today’s aviation industry depends on technologies for comfort and easy working, This lead to the development of many software and automated technologies. This sector in the aviation industry is still developing and provides a lot of scopes for aspiring people in this industry. Many airports use robots for serving and customer service like it was once exhibited at Hong Kong international airport. These things ease the airport operations and the development of such robots is going on — from automated systems to medicine delivery drone robotics are casing in the aviation industry with their ability.

3. Artificial Intelligence (AI)

AI has been a turning invention for many sectors and lots of AI professionals are pursuing this as their career. The aviation industry uses AI in almost every sector. Starting from maintenance, customer service, aircraft manufacturing, flight crew etc… Artificial intelligence plays a key role in aviation. This includes systems like MCAS(Manoeuvring Characteristics Augmentation systems). This system senses the angle of attack and provides better results in controlling especially giving proper stalling angles. The FADEC is also an interesting system to look at as it provides a more efficient fuel supply to the engine and reduces the workload of the pilot. Artificial intelligence is growing day by day in the aviation sector.

4. Automation

As machines are becoming smarter with the latest advancements in technology, pilotless planes can soon become a reality. Hybrid RPA, integrated with the cognition of AI, can make it feasible for an aircraft to complete a journey without manual intervention. Even today, planes complete the major part of the flight on the auto-pilot mode, with manual pilots taking over control only during the time of takeoff and landing. However, given the uncertainties and risks involved during a flight, it is highly unlikely that a flight, in the future, will not have any manual pilots on board. The unpredictable nature of machines makes them unreliable during an emergency, thus, requiring a human pilot to man the plane and complete the flight safely. This thing opens opportunities for such professionals.

5. Connectivity and Communication

In-flight connectivity is increasing day by day and especially the Wi-fi is becoming of greater importance. Therefore, this sector in the aviation industry can look towards more opportunities like better connectivity and inflight services can be improved with this. People studying in this sector can make use of this opportunity and can collaborate with the Manufacturing companies. Maybe in the future connectivity will play a major role in the Aviation industry. The issues of connectivity that we face today may be reduced considerably due to proper workforce and development in this sector.

There is a lot of areas that are being developed to ease our life and as new things develop opportunities and careers for job seekers increase day by day. The aviation industry is gaining new heights in terms of development and also many other interesting discoveries.

There are more interesting developments than the above-mentioned ones to know more visit aeronefs.
