Events like this are a first step to inspire the next generation of aviators and industry members, and to promoting a diverse and inclusive industry.
I cannot express enough the gratitude I feel for all of the support that we had on our debut Forever on the Fly Youth Event 😌 What started as an idea to hold a 20 student STEM class turned into this amazing event that has been an absolute labor of love for the last 5 months. Collectively we educated 500+ attendees on multiple careers in aviation; Helicopter Pilot, Airplane Pilot, Flight Attendant, Air Traffic Controller, A&P Mechanic, Aeronautical Engineer and Drone Operator. AND FLEW 156 STUDENTS IN HELICOPTERS! @flying_sombrero and I could not have done it without @fotfyouth volunteers and guest speakers @icantexpediteimacub @katthemelanated_aviator @the.flying.princess @shotbyjoe Mike and Matt of @helistream and Ron (ATC Fullerton Airport), @anthonyoshinuga, and @jdseidel @emilyhacker_ @olga.raiser @leaveit2lindsay and my family that flew out to support!
Huge thank you to our supporting entities such as the @fullertonfiredept @surfpilot172 for keeping us all safe!
Thank you @eaa for holding their simultaneous Young Eagles Event and supporting us through the process.
Thank you @cityoffullerton and Fullerton Airport & Tower for their support and patience.
And so many many others…
