Boeing<\/strong> is investing $950,000 in scholarships for pilot training to grow and diversify talent required to meet significant long-term demand for commercial airplane pilots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boeing is donating $500,000 to fund 25 scholarships with five aviation organizations committed to developing future pilots, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association<\/a>
Latino Pilots Association<\/a>
Organization of Black Aerospace Professionals<\/a>
Sisters of the Skies<\/a>
Women in Aviation International<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boeing is also donating $450,000 to Fly Compton, a Los Angeles-based nonprofit that introduces minority youth to career opportunities in aerospace. This investment will increase flight training classes offered to students in L.A.’s Compton community and introduce career topics related to designing, building and maintaining airplanes and drones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The demand for qualified and diverse pilots remains high at airlines worldwide. While becoming a pilot provides a lifelong career, access to training remains a barrier to entry for many,” said Ziad Ojakli, executive vice president of Government Operations at Boeing. “These organizations are helping the next generation of pilots realize their full potential while also showing communities that are historically underrepresented in the industry that a future in aviation is possible.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boeing projects 602,000 new pilots will be needed to fly and maintain the global commercial fleet over the next 20 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since 2019, Boeing has invested more than $8.5 million to bring pilot training programs to underrepresented populations in communities across the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
