In addition, pilots already in training with other flight schools can join the program at various entry points.<\/p><p><strong>Lee Woodward, Chief Executive Officer, Skyborne<\/strong>, says: \u201cWith our closely aligned values, we are extremely proud to be working with SkyWest Airlines, delivering a program that helps aspiring pilots realize their goals, and start this exciting career.<\/p><p>\u201cIn addition to receiving a Qualified Job Offer with SkyWest, trainees will benefit from Skyborne\u2019s unique airline-focused approach to training in one of the United States\u2019 flagship flight schools. Having completed the program through CFI, suitable pilots will be initially employed by Skyborne as Flight Instructors and be eligible to receive tuition for Certified Flight Instructor \u2013 Instrument (CFII) and Multi-Engine Instrument (MEI), up to $15,000 from SkyWest, before ultimately beginning their career as a First Officer at SkyWest Airlines.\u201d<\/p><p><strong>Tracy Gallo, SVP Flight Operations, SkyWest,<\/strong> says: \u201cWe are pleased to announce this Professional Pilot Pathway with Skyborne Vero Beach. We enjoy a significant and sustained demand for talented pilots who want to be part of the SkyWest family, and we\u2019re confident this innovative new program is an exceptional pathway to becoming a professional pilot for SkyWest Airlines.\u201d<\/p><p>Due to Skyborne\u2019s comprehensive selection process, trainees on the full SkyWest program (Private through CFI) will benefit from the unique Skyborne Guarantee, offering a complete refund of all fees after the Private Pilot Certificate (PPC) phase, if training after that point cannot be completed for proficiency reasons.<\/p><p>The first handpicked trainees will join Skyborne Airline Academy Vero Beach later this year, with courses commencing monthly.
