Since 2015, BIFA has also opened multi engine rating and license conversion/endorsement education programs by using three piper seminole aircraft facilities and adequate simulators and trained instructors.

With all the supporting facilities and infrastructure, BIFA can accept around 80 students per year.

BIFA President Commissioner Tience Sumartini, a senior pilot and a glider pilot, said that Indonesia's size was near the size of the United States, but most of America was made up of land and Indonesia was mostly water, which means the domestic aviation business would continue to connect one island to another.

"The aviation business will not be extinct. It will continue to grow over time and will still need reliable pilots," he said.

He said that BIFA graduates had been proven to successfully navigate their careers in both commercial and general aviation industries.

General aviation includes all activities outside of military flights, scheduled airlines and regular cargo such as private flights, flight training, air ambulances, police aircraft, aerial fire fighting, and remote flights.

"The prospect of a pilot is still very bright, this is what we want to underline. The general public may only be familiar with the commercial aviation industry, but the general aviation also provides many job opportunities," said Tience. (rhs/mcr20/jpnn)
