Some important issuesSome important issues

There are some very important issues which

are to be settled in the shortest time possible:

1. Financial problem. Many small airlines

and operators have got a serious deficit in

finances and they cannot organize training

for their pilots. Many of them are state

owned operators.

17

Some important issuesSome important issues

2. Air traffic providers have directed some financial resources to organize group training in many places of Ukraine. But here we have got another problem: it is very difficult to organize effective quality control.

Some important issuesSome important issues

3. Some higher educational institutions and colleges train pilots and air traffic controllers. But their syllabi and curricula contain very small amount of class hours for the English language studies.
