The Memphis International Airport, along with the Air National Guard and FedEx, hosted a week-long Careers in Aviation Expo for area members of the Civil Air Patrol. The orientation event, in its second year, allowed cadets the opportunity to learn about the multitude of jobs that are available in the aviation industry.Cadets got to spend time with employees from the TSA, Delta Airlines, the Airport Police, Airport Authority, FedEx, and airmen from the National Guard. At each step along the way, cadets met employees in various positions who explained their jobs and what they had to do to get there.
When people think aviation, they think of pilots, yet for every pilot there are a multitude of individuals serving in various positions to make that pilot's job possible. The Careers in Aviation Expo showed that whether its military, commercial, or public service, the aviation industry has a wealth of opportunities available for career consideration. We are grateful to the Memphis International Airport Authority and other sponsors who made this opportunity available.
