Stepping Out of the Comfort Zone: A Student’s Perspective on ALI’s Global Aviation Sustainability Day ✈️ I’m thrilled to share an inspiring experience from Lewis Dowie, a second-year Aviation Management with Pilot Studies student at DCU. Lewis recently attended ALI’s Global Aviation Sustainability Day—his first-ever conference—and his story is a powerful reminder of the value of saying “yes” to new opportunities. Initially hesitant about attending, Lewis thought the event might be too formal or intimidating. Instead, he discovered a world of insights, connections, and inspiration that has brought him closer to his dream career in aviation. From taking pages of notes during presentations to engaging in meaningful discussions with industry leaders like Professor Paul Williams and Brian Moran, Boeing’s Chief Sustainability Officer, Lewis left the event more motivated than ever. 💡 Key takeaways from Lewis’s experience: #Sustainability in aviation: Talks on climate change, the jet stream’s impact on flights, and the role of SAF and CORSIA opened his eyes to the urgent challenges and opportunities ahead. #Networking insights: Experts emphasized passion, knowledge, and confidence as the keys to impactful interactions. #Personal growth: Attending the event boosted his confidence in asking questions, engaging in lectures, and refining his goals. Lewis’s story is a testament to the power of stepping out of your comfort zone and embracing learning experiences. He now dreams of returning to a similar event—not just as an attendee, but as a speaker sharing his own expertise. This journey highlights how events like these can shape students’ perspectives, build their networks, and ignite their passion for meaningful change. A huge thank you to Professor Prof Marina Efthymiou for supporting Lewis and to Aircraft Leasing Ireland for hosting such an impactful event!

Aviation is a growing industry. There are constantly lots of planes in the air 24/7. Some people are worried about the sustainability and emission levels through airplanes. Professionals are coming up with ideas to help with these concerns. They are pushing for 'The Net-Zero Challenge' which is to achieve net-zero emissions by 2025. New technological advancements are making this goal seem possible. This includes improvements in aircraft engineering, more sustainable fuel, and even using AI to help operations. Even though I intern in general aviation, this is the future and we need to know of the advancements and new opportunities. #nebointerns #nebo #cteinternships #cteintern #internships #MMHS #mmhsintern #aviation #engineering Christine Thomas Nebo School District CTE Internships

We all want to foster a more inclusive and sustainable aviation ecosystem.   Last Friday, I had the opportunity to contribute tangibly.   Thanks to the collaborative effort of Fondation ENAC, ENAC, ATR and two vocational high schools in Toulouse (Roland Garros and Eugène Montel), we have kickstarted the ProPulse project.   Over the next three years, four students a year – two from each high school – will be supported by both ATR professionals and ENAC students, who will guide them through their educational journey, with the aim to nurture a new generation of aviation enthusiasts and skilled professionals.   Through this mentorship programme, the high schoolers will be able to gain insights into the diverse careers that exist in our industry, enhance their technical skills, and develop the essential ‘soft’ skills for their integration into the corporate world.   As a responsible business, ATR takes its social role to heart, and ProPulse is another way for us to create vital links between communities, bridge gaps, have a positive impact on our society, and contribute to breaking down barriers and obstacles, both visible and invisible. I want to warmly thank all the actors who have contributed over the last months to make ProPulse a reality.   If you’re curious to know more: https://lnkd.in/ep4Ywj4x   Here’s to a future full of possibilities for the young generations!

At the Embraer Foundation, we are committed to creating opportunities that introduce young people to aviation and building partnerships that pave the way for careers in the industry. This mission is at the heart of our (em)PACT grant program, where social investments make a real difference. As we approach the end of 2024, I want to take a moment to thank Anthony Irwin and Gary Kretz for their invaluable partnership in giving local students an unforgettable experience at our Fort Lauderdale facility. A huge thank you to our incredible Fort Lauderdale team for welcoming students during our Embraer Aviation Day. Your willingness to share your expertise and experiences with the next generation has inspired them to explore new interests in aviation. I also want to express my gratitude to the team at Experience Aviation for bringing STEM experiences to life through The Flying Classroom, and to Captain Barrington Irving for his unwavering dedication to providing young people from diverse backgrounds with tangible opportunities in aviation and pathways to meaningful careers.

Ready, set, go – Linköping, lead the way globally 💥   Today, we launch a very exciting project together with Camilla Lejon and Eva Lundh and their fantastic colleagues in #Linköping – with the aim to engage travellers and make them aware of how to travel with less climate impact! 💡 Last year we did a survey with the research institute Novus where around 53 % of the Swedes said they are ready to pay extra for a more sustainable travel. But the majority of them also said that they don’t as they don’t know how to. This needs to change me, and my team thought ! Why we among others shaped this project, now being executed in the excellent lead of our fantastic management trainee Puck van den Berk 💪 together with the Linköping team. 👉 So, from today everyone travelling from Linköping rest assured that when leaving from Linköping you will have all the knowledge needed. And if we / the planet 🌍 is lucky you will also have contributed to further reduce the emissions from flying 😊 And for everyone not flying from Linköping, don’t be sad, you can also reduce emissions when flying with us anywhere in the world. The most impactful thing a traveller can do is to add sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) as it can reduce the emissions as much as up to 80 percent. At #Air France and #KLM we have already added 1 % SAF to get you started, and you can top up with 25, 50 or 100 percent yourself. And already at the lowest level you push things forward greatly as the current SAF volume globally is only around 0,1 % in total (all airlines)! So, now Linköping show the world it is possible to do way better than that 🙏 🙌 #SAF #sustainability #reduceemissionsfromflying Note - SAF is one of the key contributors in reducing emissions from flying, now and in the future, even when electric- and hydrogen aircrafts will enter the skies some years from now. One of the great things with SAF is that it can be used in existing aircrafts and fuel systems. At Air France and KLM, we see SAF as key and for two years in a row we have been the biggest user of SAF globally and we use around 16 - 17 % of all the SAF globally.
