SkyLine’s Flight to Engineering Mastery

Overview

Taking Off with Precision

SkyLine Airlines, a leading global airline with over 300 aircraft in its fleet, sought to elevate its engineering team’s capabilities to meet increasing operational demands and maintain a competitive edge in the industry. With a goal of expanding its fleet by 25% over the next three years and modernizing its infrastructure, SkyLine recognized the urgent need for a robust learning ecosystem to upskill its engineers and improve overall efficiency.

The Challenge

Navigating Inconsistencies

SkyLine’s engineering division faced several key challenges:

Skills gap: 40% of engineers lacked the advanced technical knowledge needed to support new, cutting-edge technologies being integrated into the fleet.
Training misalignment: Existing training programs were not aligned with fast-evolving business priorities, resulting in inefficiencies across critical roles.
Knowledge transfer issues: Delays in maintenance and engineering tasks were increasing operational downtime by 20%, partly due to ineffective knowledge transfer between roles like Maintenance Manager, Systems Engineer, and Aircraft Design Specialist.

To address these challenges, SkyLine needed targeted, high-impact learning solutions that could bridge the skills gap and align learning with future needs.
