Jet Aviation Staffing announces today a new global training program for pilots in partnership with FlightSafety International. This program, offered exclusively through the hullo Aircrew platform, was created in support of the freelance workforce.
This training opportunity allows pilots to complete recurrent training; Jet Aviation Staffing will ensure payment of the upfront costs for eligible pilots and offer a flexible re-payment plan.
