Aviate was the key to Sean’s dream career.

787 First Officer and Aviate Coach Sean B. began his aviation career by following his father’s footsteps and training at a Part 141 school.

Sean was flying for a former United Express partner when the pandemic hit, and with the industry shift he began flying for CommuteAir, a current United Express Aviate partner. He’s grateful to the Aviate program for providing a secure path as he worked his way to the United flight deck.
