What FAPA Members Say

Over 35 years ago FAPA was instrumental in helping me secure a career as a pilot with a major air carrier.  Although I had plenty of experience as a military pilot, I needed someone to help me present my qualifications in the best possible way.  FAPA did just that by helping me create an eye catching resume, practice interviews, and keep me abreast of the current hiring trends.  After my 34 year career I felt like I still had a lot to offer an employer and my passengers.  Once again FAPA helped me through the process of finding a corporate position with a highly desirable firm.  I highly recommend FAPA as a resource, whether you are just beginning your career, or are looking for a post retirement follow on career.  Thank you FAPA!
