Career Path Update

This class has been extremely beneficial in learning more about the various aspects of the aviation industry.  While I do have a  better idea of the different careers in the aviation industry I still maintain the end goal of working in the Human Resources department at Delta.  I will accomplish this by earning a MBA with a HR concentration from Eastern Michigan University.  The step beyond that will ultimately depend on the condition of the industry.  It is possible for there to be an entry level posting at Delta right away but more likely I will have to work my way there gaining experiences at other companies until I reach my goal.

EU ETS Update

It has been a little over a month since I wrote about the EU ETS.  There have been a number of developments since then.  The list of countries opposing the ETS has grown.  The recent add-ons include China.  In addition even more airlines have announced plans for retaliation such as revoking landing rights and ceasing negotiations for additional routes.  In a recent meeting involving 30 countries outside the EU, it was decided that each country will act individually and act as they see fit.   Consequences may lead to a trade war.
