About this template
The Industry — Aviation template is a precise sector CV set in Barlow Condensed and Inter on slate ink and cool grey paper, with JetBrains Mono annotations. Headlines read like flight-data labels, with structured fields for total flight hours, type ratings and EASA or FAA certifications — a format airline recruiters and MRO directors decode instantly.
Who is it for?
It suits airline and business-jet pilots, flight engineers, aeronautical and avionics engineers, MRO managers and airline operations leaders applying to Boeing, Airbus, Lockheed Martin, NASA, Rolls-Royce Aerospace, Pratt & Whitney, GE Aerospace, Delta, United, American Airlines, Emirates and Lufthansa Technik. Equally relevant for airport operations and air-traffic controllers moving into training and OPS expertise.
How to use it
The header must display current licences (ATPL, CPL, PPL, FE) with expiry dates, type ratings (A320, A350, B737NG, B777, B787, Falcon 8X) and total / PIC / multi-pilot hours. For engineers, list Part 66 or Part 147 approvals (B1, B2, C) and the engines maintained (CFM56, LEAP, Trent XWB, GTF). Quote both EASA and FAA certifications side by side when applying internationally — the dual reference is expected for transatlantic moves.
Frequently asked questions
Should I report detailed flight hours?
Yes. Total time (TT), PIC, SIC, multi-engine, instrument and night hours are the first numbers airline recruiters at Delta, United, American, easyJet and Ryanair read. For business-jet applications (NetJets, VistaJet, Flexjet), add bizjet hours and active type ratings — these metrics gate the entire screening process.
How do I list a type rating mid-revalidation?
State 'A320 type rating — revalidation due MM/YYYY' rather than hiding the date. Airlines verify status against EASA and FAA registries, and any opacity flags the file. For MRO profiles, do the same for Part 66 licence extensions and the modules in active examination.
Does it suit defence and rotorcraft applications?
Yes. The template supports profiles aimed at Lockheed Martin Skunk Works, Northrop Grumman, Bell, Sikorsky, Boeing Defense and Airbus Helicopters. List security clearance level (Confidential, Secret, Top Secret/SCI) if the application allows, and separate military aircraft hours (F-35, AH-64, V-22, A400M) from civilian hours with the role held.
