AMERICAN FLYERS SPOTLIGHT

The best part of working for American Flyers is the instructors. They genuinely care about student development—not just as pilots but also in building confidence and knowledge. It’s rewarding to see my students succeed, especially when they grasp concepts and execute procedures independently. I’m pursuing my Airline Transport and Professional certificates, aiming to immerse myself in all aspects of aviation, from aerobatics to soaring, while earning various type ratings. The sky is the limit, and I won’t let anything hold me back.

The most rewarding part of training new pilots is seeing their hard work pay off, even in small achievements. I am currently working toward my seaplane rating, a certification that has always intrigued me. My ultimate goal is to become a major airline captain. I love working for American Flyers because of the incredible staff and supportive team—it’s truly a joy to come to work each day.

I’m currently working toward my airline transport license, with hopes of flying for American Airlines one day and inspiring others to chase their aviation dreams. Eventually, I’d also love to pursue my seaplane rating. One of my favorite parts of training new pilots is watching them light up after their first solo or checkride. I love working for American Flyers because I’m surrounded by passionate, dedicated students who I get to help grow into confident, professional aviators.

Working for American Flyers has unlocked so many opportunities that have helped me grow into a better pilot, and I’m excited to keep pushing forward—the next certification I plan to earn is my ATP rating. One of my favorite parts of training new pilots is sharing my passion for flying while watching them accomplish every goal they set. Ultimately, my long-term goal in aviation is to retire from American Airlines.
