Our Vision

To empower the next generation of aviation professionals through structured mentorship and community connection.

A connected, confident, and competent community of aviation professionals prepared to thrive locally and globally.

Engineers and Flight operations officers struggle to secure internships, while low hour Pilots face acute hurdles.

Some are relegated to scarce ground instructing, a position also contested by flight dispatchers, while others remain isolated, unable to start their careers due to the prohibitive cost of type ratings and a lack of accessible openings.

Our Mission

Even after internships, employment remains elusive, with many resorting to unpaid volunteering or finding such opportunities scarce. Most lack other employable skills for alternative careers, trapping them in stagnation. Aviators trained abroad endure months to validate credentials with the regulator.
