From Tech Consulting to the Cockpit: Escaping the Golden Handcuffs for a Life in the Skies

Welcome back to another exciting episode of Fly the Transition! We are joined by Aaron, a pilot with one of the major airlines. He talks to us about early dreams of aviation that were curbed by the events of 9/11, a successful tech consulting career, and breaking the golden handcuffs to chase his dreams of flying.
