San Antonio Airport System inspires aviation careers with mobile flight simulator

Throughout the summer San Antonio Airport System's mobile flight simulator has been making touch-and-go departures around the city, spawning interest for careers in aviation for San Antonio's disadvantaged youth. The program, which began in 2022, offers young aspiring pilots and those interested in aviation an opportunity to sit in a pilot’s seat to experience what it’s like to fly a plane. “The whole idea is to inspire kids to aim high and to see the many career pathways that exist in the aviation industry,” said SAAS's Eric Warner in a media statement
