Abstract

In an era in which aviation research and scholarly activities have increased immensely (Truitt & Kaps, 1995), the demand for qualified aviation faculty members will inevitably increase. As we approach the dawn of a new century and beyond, qualified aviation faculty members may be in short supply. Perhaps equally disturbing, the literature on current and projected needs for aviation faculty is notably silent. Uncertainties in aviation faculty recruitment issues may be further exacerbated by retirements, an inadequate supply of new entrants into the field, and increased demands for more aviation faculty members and researchers.
