Thank you to Captain Chris Stokes and First Officer Taylor Young from United Airlines for an informative talk on interview preparation and professionalism in aviation! We were especially excited to welcome FO Young, a former student of ours, back to share his journey and career experience. Our students and CFIs gained valuable insights into presenting themselves as top candidates, and we’re looking forward to Captain Stokes and First Officer Young conducting mock airline interviews to help them take the next step in their careers! ✈️ #PilotLife #AviationCareers #FlightTraining #FutureAirlinePilots
Big thanks to Capt. Jennifer Crum for giving our students an incredible tour and history lesson on the T-38 today!
