Hispanic aircraft pilots make up less than 10% of the workforce.
HOUSTON — At just 21 years old, Christian Colón is one of the youngest pilots for"People give me weird looks when they see me in the cockpit," Colón said."They think I'm a flight attendant or I'm a mechanic or something. They don't expect a young person like I am."
"The reason I say this flight is special is because on row 7C I have both of my parents," Colón said over the intercom of one of his flights.. With the help of his mentor, Andy Jamison, and the partnership that United has with the school, Colón was able to join the small number of Hispanic aircraft pilots.
"It just shows that anybody could do anything that they set their minds out to do," said Jamison."Regardless of where your background is.", and then the youngest captain."I've always told my parents that, hey, I want you guys to fly with me back home because you guys took me out of Puerto Rico for a better future and I will bring you back from vacation. Back to where it all started," he said.
