Corporate/General Aviation Career Day

Corporate/General Aviation Career Day

General Aviation (GA) is all flying in the USA other than that done by the airlines or the military. GA includes corporate aviation. There are approximately 200,000 GA aircraft in the USA and about 330,000 GA jobs. The career day will be held in the afternoon after the regular SIU summer Open House and will include tours of the extensive SIUC Aviation training facilities, briefings by pilots and mechanics currently working in corporate and general aviation, as well as tours of corporate and general aviation aircraft being flown in just for this day.  Participants can attend the SIU Open House in the morning, come to the airport for a complimentary lunch in the main terminal, and stay for the afternoon event at the SIU Airport Campus!

A free T-Shirt to the first 75 student participants to sign up and attend the aviation portion of the day.   In addition, students will be able to go on a free “Introductory Flight” in an SIUC Aviation Flight aircraft.
