“Flight to the Future” Offers Career Relaunch in a Post-COVID World

(Hartford, CT) – Amid the adversity of COVID-19, but just in time for the holidays, Aquiline Drones (AD) – America’s fastest-growing drone technology  company- launches its new and exciting jobs initiative dubbed Flight to the FutureAccessed via www.aquilinedrones.com/flight-to-the-future, this unique drone training and small business start-up program targets all Americans, especially those affected by the pandemic by using advanced technology to create high-paying jobs to help transform the current unemployment landscape.

“We can transcend hardship with a bit of resilience, ingenuity and tenacity,” said Barry Alexander, CEO and Founder of Aquiline Drones. “Self-actualization is a necessity in combatting adversity and is the most appropriate gift that gives hope, empowerment, self-worth and balance where financial uncertainty looms over our economy.”

“Small business is the lifeblood of our economy and we hope to register upwards of one million small drone businesses through this program by the end of the year,” adds Alexander.  “We are jointly responsible as good corporate citizens to support the communities in which we thrive.”

As such, AD is offering 500 training enrollments and calling on all states, municipalities and businesses of every type nationwide to contribute towards reversing the dreadful effects of unemployment.  Once inside the portal, corporations can identify the button “Corporate Sponsorship” to purchase drone pilot training slots for as many individuals (both employed and unemployed) as they wish.  “It’s definitely a win-win for all,” Alexander said, “It greatly increases the economy’s tax base, decreases its unemployment burden and stimulates the overall economy – making us less reliant on Government subsidies.”

According to a recent report by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, unemployment in America has reached an all-time high of 23.9% – primarily because of the coronavirus pandemic and efforts to contain it.  But unlike our predecessors during the Great Depression, today’s 40 million jobless individuals have more options than ever before to quickly reboot their careers in our post-COVID world – and AD is on a mission to help Americans regain financial independence.  The full-service, drone and cloud technology company has spent months conceptualizing and incubating this innovative new online drone pilot business training program for seasoned aviators, drone enthusiasts and the general public.

“As one of four drone airline companies in America and privately owned by professional aviators, we have witnessed a massive amount of our fellow pilots lose their positions and border on bankruptcy as a result of this detrimental pandemic,” said Alexander.  “At the most basic level, drones are miniature aircraft and thus, a natural transition for commercial pilots. However, we’ve created a simple and tangible training program that appeals to the masses as well.”

Specifically, AD’s Flight to the Future training course prepares a participant to become a fully licensed drone pilot and business operator in four easy steps:

  • Pilot Trained and FAA Certified – Comprehensive online curriculum and real-time, one-on-one instruction features flight training that uses an online simulator and in-person sessions with a training drone. After successfully passing the FAA examination, the AD instructor will secure the official certification.
  • AD Cloud Immersion – A dedicated cloud for drone operations with edge computing and built-in analytics. All program participants will be provided with a free subscription to the AD Cloud for six months to conquer its Command and Control capabilities and interactive online content. Additionally, enrollees have access to a customized Flight to the Future dashboard, where one can begin working towards an independent drone business. When the business operation launches, this dashboard will send drone job opportunities and integrate with the Command and Control module to assign drone missions with proper FAA authorizations.
  • Master a Specific Industry Application – Specialized, online simulator and flight training will optimize one’s drone and cloud skills to master a specific use case.  Program participants may choose from eight different areas of concentration.
  • Small Drone Business – Full business setup including business registration, insurance, virtual administrative support as well as AD’s Drones On Demand Service (DDS) on-boarding process for viable and continuous work opportunities.

Alexander notes that Aquiline Drones’ Flight to the Future system utilizes the most sophisticated technological platform to achieve its goals, including AD’s proprietary digital agent named Spartacus that provides feedback throughout a participant’s curriculum and training. Spartacus then becomes a job advisor once the individual establishes his or her business by forwarding lists of requests for actual drone opportunities and missions.

“Besides our cognitive agent Spartacus, our advanced DDS job recruiting system is what sets us apart from the competition,” adds Alexander.  “Not only are we training people in a burgeoning industry, but we’re actually matching our newly certified drone service providers with real jobs and missions.  In fact, their first job is very likely a part of the training package!”

Further, Alexander emphasizes that the financial commitment is well worth the return on investment as Aquiline Drones’ Flight to the Future program ranges in cost from $799 for licensed pilot to $999 for the public and takes as little as 6-weeks to complete depending on level of experience.

“We need to revisit the concept of society – in helping ourselves and each other, so that everyone wins” Alexander adds. “If an individual can help someone else besides themself, they probably should…and that’s ok too.”

Simply increase the quantity of enrollments in the shopping cart and send an email to [email protected] with information on the additional person or people being sponsored.  The same option is available to small businesses or large corporations alike.

The first wave of classes begins on September 1, 2020 with new semesters occurring every eight weeks for flexibility of schedule.  However, early registration is suggested to secure a slot before the cutoff.  To register, visit www.aquilinedrones.com/flight-to-the-future.

“Some argue that drones are replacing humans, but we’re essentially saving humans by moving them out of harm’s way, while creating a new workforce development solution,” concludes Alexander.  “Our powerful drone pilot training program is a chance to get out of unemployment, leave the present behind and reinvent oneself for the high-technology future.”
