On this week’s episode of AeroTalk, we sit down with two United Airlines pilots who also hold management positions within the airline to discuss what it is like balancing responsibilities both in the cockpit and in the corporate side of aviation. They share how their careers developed from their time at UND to flying for a major airline, the experiences that helped them move into leadership roles at United, and the unique challenges and opportunities that come with managing both flying and desk duties. This episode offers an inside look at career growth, leadership, and the many different paths available within the airline industry.
