Data on the critical and distinctive skills necessary for those working in the Flight Instructor field from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Flight Instructor majors need many skills, but most especially Operation and Control. The revealed comparative advantage (RCA) shows that Flight Instructor majors need more than the average amount of Operation and Control, Operation Monitoring, Troubleshooting, Science, Quality Control Analysis, Monitoring, Judgment and Decision Making, Active Learning, Instructing, Learning Strategies, Critical Thinking, Coordination, Management of Personnel Resources, Complex Problem Solving, Active Listening, Systems Analysis, Equipment Maintenance, Reading Comprehension, Mathematics, Speaking, Time Management, Service Orientation, Persuasion, Systems Evaluation, Social Perceptiveness, Negotiation, Writing, Programming, Management of Material Resources, Operations Analysis, Repairing, Management of Financial Resources, Technology Design, Equipment Selection, and Installation.
These two visualizations, one a radial chart and one a bar chart, show the same information, a rating of how necessary the following skills are for Flight Instructor majors. Toggle between "value" and "RCA" to see the absolute rating of that skill (value) and the revealed comparative advantage (RCA), or how much greater or lesser that skill's rating is than the average. The longer the bar or the closer the line comes to the circumference of the circle, the more important that skill is. The importance of Operation and Control is very distinctive for majors, but the Operation and Control, Operation Monitoring, Critical Thinking, Monitoring, Active Listening, Reading Comprehension, Active Learning, Judgment and Decision Making, Speaking, Complex Problem Solving, Coordination, Learning Strategies, Instructing, Systems Analysis, Time Management, Social Perceptiveness, Writing, Management of Personnel Resources, Science, Service Orientation, Persuasion, Troubleshooting, Systems Evaluation, Mathematics, Negotiation, Quality Control Analysis, Operations Analysis, Management of Material Resources, Programming, Equipment Maintenance, Management of Financial Resources, Technology Design, Repairing, Equipment Selection, and Installation are the three most important skills for people in the field.
