Meet ATP-LZU Alum Austin, and learn more about his background and why he chose ATP:
"I attended the University of Georgia, where I was first introduced to aviation through my girlfriend, who inspired me to start flying. She had a Cessna 150 at Athens/Ben Epps Airport, which I learned to fly in and earned my private pilots license.
After graduating, I pursued a sales career in Dallas, Texas, but continued flying on the side and realized aviation was where my true passion was. I chose ATP Flight School for its fast, structured path to earning my ratings, completing the program in six months and then instructing with ATP."
Congratulations, Austin! We're proud to have been part of your journey to the flight deck. 🛫
