The Government wants to see more careers in the aviation sector take off.  

It's launched the first ever aviation strategy which is designed to future proof the sector, and promote tourism and economic growth.  

Associate Transport Minister James Meager says he wants to make it quicker and easier for people to train while keeping standards high.  

He told Mike Hosking there are some barriers which need to be looked at.  

Meager says it costs about $100 thousand to train and it's slower than other countries.
