PENNANT INTERNATIONAL GROUP PLC
Launch of Aviation Skills Charter
Pennant International Group plc ("Pennant", the "Group", or the
"Company"), the AIM quoted supplier of integrated training and
support solutions, products and services which train and assist
operators and maintainers in the defence and regulated civilian
sectors, is pleased to announce that on 3 September 2019, at an
event at Cranfield University, aviation and aerospace industry
leaders and educators came together as a unified body to support
the launch of a new Charter for Aviation Skills.
The purpose of this new Charter is to create commitment and
responsibility amongst key stakeholders to address the
widely-recognised shortage of skilled people within UK aviation
industry and to formulate a tangible, and achievable action plan to
deliver more trained pilots, aircraft technicians, air traffic
controllers and groundcrew.
Organisations attending the Charter event comprised major OEMs,
operators and educational institutions and included Airbus, Boeing,
British Airways, Ryanair, Leonardo, Marshalls and Cranfield
University.
The Charter, which aligns with the UK Government's draft
'Aviation 2050' strategy, anticipates a multi-faceted approach to
delivering more skilled people for UK aviation, which will include
the creation of clear pathways into aviation careers, providing a
catalyst for industry and educators to establish new training
courses and academies.
The Charter launch was co-ordinated by the Aviation Skills
Partnership, part of the Pennant Group which has been a driving
force in tackling this widely recognised skills gap.
John Ponsonby OBE, Chairman of ASP commented:
"The UK needs to re-establish its place at the forefront of
aviation training to meet a global skills gap and to sustain and
grow the UK aviation and aerospace industries. Launching this
Charter, with its associated action plan, is the first step in this
critical journey."
