Certificate IV: one year full-time. Location Hawthorn, Moorabbin Airport. Entry requirements Satisfactory completion of an appropriate Victorian Year 12 or its equivalent, or mature age. 2001 VCE prerequisites: Units 3 and 4 – English and General Mathematics. A pass in Physics is desirable but not essential. Application procedure VTAC code: to be advised. Course overview This course is offered in conjunction with General Flying Services at Moorabbin Airport. The overall objective of the course is to prepare students for professional careers in the aviation industry as aeroplane pilots. Whilst there is a strong engineering base, the technical risks associated with flying have diminished, and the areas of more concern are related to human failings. In addition, pilots should be industry-aware, recognising the needs of both the organisation and the customer. In both courses, only fifty per cent of academic subjects are technical. Career opportunities Pilot. Successful completion of the course may also allow Pathways to one of Swinburne’s degree programs. Professional recognition QANTAS have recognised the combination of Swinburne and General Flying Services as one of their preferred sources of new pilots.
