Avelo Airlines and Skyborne partner to support new pilots and mechanics

Avelo Airlines and Skyborne have implemented a Preferred Hiring Pathway, to provide opportunities for pilots and mechanics training at Skyborne to embark on a career with Avelo.

This partnership follows a previous MOU signing. The Avelo and Skyborne Preferred Hiring Pathway is designed to support the selection and training of potential new-hire, high-caliber pilots, and mechanics, to assist with subsequent recruitment to the Avelo workforce.

Captain Ed Davidson, Managing Director, Skyborne, says: “Skyborne and Avelo Airlines are both leaders in aviation and are committed to training and producing the very best pilots in the industry. This is especially important at a time when demand for highly skilled and qualified airline pilots has never been greater.

Andrew Levy, Chairman and CEO, Avelo Airlines, says: “We are very pleased to be working with Skyborne Airline Academy, which is recognised as being in the top three flight schools in the United States. To continue to achieve Avelo’s mission of inspiring travel and making air travel easy and affordable, we need the very best pilots. By partnering with Skyborne to implement a new Preferred Hiring Pathway, we can be confident that the highest standards of training will be put into professional practice on our flightdecks.”
