NEW YORK: The United States is grappling with a shortage of maintenance workers in the aviation industry, with baby boomers retiring and others changing jobs during the pandemic.

The world's commercial aircraft fleet is set to balloon by a third by 2034, according to consulting firm Oliver Wyman.

It lacks some 24,000 aviation maintenance technicians in North America, a figure due to reach nearly 40,000 by 2028, Oliver Wyman notes. "The job market is good and there is more money so, at the moment, more go straight to work than before," Jackson told AFP. AlixPartners specialist Pascal Fabre stresses that the training of maintenance technicians will need to be accelerated.

There is a need for some 690,000 new maintenance technicians to help maintain the global commercial fleet over the next 20 years, according to Boeing.
