Very often we get inquiries from young adults and teens in HS who are interested in a career in aviation but don’t really know where to go or what to do. ALPA (the AirLine Pilot Association, the largest pilot union in the country) is very big on education and encouraging the next generation of pilots. At my airline Hawaiian, we have an absolutely amazing Chairman of our Education Committee, Bryan Shirota that’s been doing school visits and other projects for years (as well as working with the National Committee).
Since COVID essentially shutdown his visits he created the attached video. Keep in mind this video was geared towards kids here in Hawaii, but regardless of where you live or where you are in the process I think you’ll find it beneficial. Aloha and enjoy!
