Entering Business Aviation, Part IV: Crafting a Resume
Matt manages the Aviation Employment Board a job resource center for aviators. In aviation, there are certain things that must be included in a résumé to help you get noticed.

I like what the University at Buffalo School of Management has to say about writing a résumÃ.

A380 Bathrooms
Both Airbus and Boeing have seen record orders for their latest model jets. Ready to get out of the driver seat yet and into a futuristic amenity rich modern jet airliner? The major commercial jet manufacturers and airlines are betting that you will. The Boeing 787 will have humidified air, so no more dry eyes during flights and because of its stronger composite cabin, it will leave the cabin pressure at 6,000 feet instead of 8,000 or 10,000 feet, meaning it is safer on the bio-system with more oxygen. Will this get more air travelers out of their SUVs and into airliners for those 350 plus mile journeys? Some industry analysts think it just might be the ticket the market sector needs. Boeing is also planning as a standard feature on its 787 airliners to have a window in the laboratories.

Airline Security; Stewardesses The Last Line Of Defense!
There is also the real threat, of terrorist co-operators working within the Airline service industry, which has access to the Aircrafts and could place weapons or bombs onboard the Aircraft, to be used by the terrorists. It might come as a chock to many people, including the Stewardesses, but the fact remains that in today's Airline Industry, the Stewardess is the last line of defense. More mundane, but daily occurrences in the International Airline Industry, is unruly passengers. There is also the fact, that the Airlines often have little control over the actual Airport security and close to no-control at foreign Airports. In many foreign airports the airlines simply have to rely on the local security and the occasional inspections, by official institutions such as the FAA etc.

Young Men Trying to Imitate the 9-11 Scenario, Part I
That was wonderful for general aviation, aircraft sales prices and the entire general aviation industry. This caused more aircraft to be sold and Piper, Cessna, Mooney, Beechcraft, Rockwell, Aeronica, Robinson, Grumman all did well in aviation. Read Airport Business, Flying, AOPA, Sport Aviation or Private Pilot, you will see. When the luxury tax law was enacted 30 years ago the aviation market tanked and never really recovered. Others in his peer group and older people who understood his dreams to fly.

Automated Satellite Following System for UAV Swarms
It is time to take these technologies into the battlespace and try them out and use what we learn to help us monitor forces of nature, grid out the surface of other planets and provide protection and security to the free world. All other UAVs will be controlled thru that data and by satellite in grid formations every half to three miles. I propose keeping this task of swarming UAVs simple. We cannot quite match evolution and bird flock formations but we are on our way. This queen bee, or swarm commander will interpret data and send in relevant data to the command and control tele-robotic augments simulator pilot.

Cactus Fly-In, Casa Grande AZ
A separate company specializing in aircraft washing will have its own washing procedures and can help aviation safety with regards to washing. Fly-ins and air shows like the Cactus Fly-In is a way all of us can show our support for our general aviation business sector. Sure many of these services will be replaced, but the all in one type aviation services business will be tough, airport flight schools may opt out of other type services and concentrate on what they are good at and what is most profitable. We are seeing a recovery in general aviation after many companies, especially FBO at smaller airports were forced out of business. The event seems to be growing every year, much busier this year than last year even though general aviation has suffered due to 9-11.

American Airlines; Crash: Nov. 12, 2001
Some industry analysts say that Airbus builders are working for the laziest Union in the World selling to mostly government subsidized airlines. The years following have been the safest years in Airline Industry History. The aircraft involved in that crash was an old Eastern Airlines plane, which was probably not too sturdy anyway for lack of maintenance back when that airline was falling apart. They should not have been that close to the KLM, as the pilot in command should have moved away from the problem and when problems did occur should have flown the plane first. Three pilots sitting in a cockpit who make way over the average standard of living and negated the reason they are so highly paid.

AWACS Automated Flight Following System for Nuke Bunker Buster Accuracy
Similar to a Tomahawk missile attack, but with pin point accuracy into the cavity of each consecutive strike. This technology, which is currently being used to guide fire fighting aircraft to the drop zone can be used without any problem to guide in a swarm of UAVs used as a multiple warhead strike. Since we already have these technologies, we should be practicing with them to hit the exact same spot ten times in a row within a short period of a 3-5 minutes. In the event of nuclear detonation this would have a piling effect on our enemy and easily take out an underground enemy. Luckily we can get rid of our nuclear waste, kill the enemy to serve our political will and prevent the sale of nuclear arms to enemies of democracy and International Terrorists.

Airbus to Build $600 Million Aircraft Manufacturing Plant in US
Think on the global competitiveness of the commercial aviation sector. The Boeing Company has some heavy competition with Airbus in the commercial aviation sector and the future of commercial aviation both in passenger aircraft and cargo or freighters looks bright. Mobile Alabama is growing nice and has been moving forward with new housing tracts, retail centers, tourist destination locations and a growing and vibrant middle class. With most of the other major cities in Alabama having large manufacturing plants such as the Mercedes plant in Tuscaloosa and the large auto manufacturing plants in Montgomery and Birmingham it does make sense that Mobile would be next on the list to get some economical development juice from the state. Alabama is quite good at attracting manufacturing facilities such as Mercedes, Nissan and other automobile manufacturers and is known for their tax incentives and pro-business stance.

Cleaning Air Cargo Containers
I hope you'll take this advice and follow it, as it uplifts the industry the more professional companies there are out there and together we also add a safety net to the new Homeland Security paradigm. Yes, those are low prices, but that's how you secure large accounts, which will lead to more work around industrial areas and airports. Before your pressure washing company or cleaning service will be chosen to do such accounts you must convince your potential customer that you believe in. Ground Equipment at airports is parked all over the ramp, many pieces of equipment and if you charge by the unit you may find yourself cleaning hundreds of pieces of equipment in a single visit. So for twenty years that's what we've done.
