How to become an FBO manager?

Career: FBO Manager

To become an FBO manager, you need to have a bachelor’s degree in aviation or a similar field, prior supervisorial and aviation experience, and various qualifications from the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). Some companies promote FBO line workers to management positions after several years of proven work experience. You can gain the skills on-the-job without the need for formal education. However, companies will hire from outside when necessary. Earning a credential in aircraft fueling safety from the National Air Transportation Association (NATA) can set you apart from other applicants. It also gives you essential training for handling emergency situations that may arise during fueling or repairs.
