GOODYEAR, AZ — This Wednesday, United Airlines — the only major U.S. airline to own a flight training school — celebrated the graduation of its first-ever class of students from United Aviate Academy, located at the Phoenix Goodyear Airport.She spent the last year at United Aviate Academy in Goodyear gaining various certifications and banking flight hours to reach a milestone day on Wednesday.
Grace is one of the valedictorians for the first-ever graduation class at the United Aviate Academy. The academy helps aspiring aviators get a certified flight instructors license to help train the next crop of pilots — aiding a nationwide pilot shortage. “Ultimately I want to fly for United, I want to get on the 787,” said Grace with a smile on her face.
UAA's first graduating class of students was nearly 70% women or people of color, according to a release from the airline. United says the airline's goal is to train about 5,000 new pilots at the school by 2030 with at least half being women or people of color.
