Owen P. is a graduate of University of North Dakota, which is part of Aviate’s network of universities. His Aviate Coach was also an alumni of the university, and had a strong bond from the start.

Owen consistently engaged with his Coach throughout his time in the program and they are both now B737 pilots based in ORD.

“When I had a question that I couldn’t find an answer for, I knew there was someone I could always ask because my Coach had been in my shoes before, made similar decisions and shares experiences in an ever-changing industry,” Owen shared.
