Dear Readers,
Last month Jen P. wrote us asking how to start a career in aviation. As I mentioned in my answer, it would be impossible and unjust to explain the variety and complexity of options to achieving this goal in this space. I did highly recommend that she find a mentor to help guide her through the process. Our friends over at Professional Pilots of Tomorrow, PPOT, are doing such an amazing job of mentoring pilots that I decided to invite them and have their mentors relay their experiences in an article for us to share with our readers. This month, one of the founders of PPOT writes about his student of whom he helped mentor into a career in aviation. We hope to bring you more success stories from PPOT as the months go by!
Good luck in your career goals and remember, never ever give up! Before you know it, you will be enjoying views like this every week!
Regards,
Craig D. Pieper
