Justin Mutawassim tweeted photos labeled “How it started” and “How it’s going.”
His pull toward aviation intensified as the years passed, but he did not see a clear path to becoming a pilot, so at age 19 he found himself working as a ramp agent. He wanted to be close to the planes he loved.“It feels incredibly surreal still,” said Mutawassim, 26, who is based in New York City.Mutawassim’s middle school teacher — who was in the United States Air Force — wrongly informed him that perfect vision was a requirement to become a pilot.
“Next thing you know, it turned into a year and a half of an awesome job,” he said, adding that he quickly progressed from agent to supervisor, and later, instructor. “I just absolutely fell in love with the technical aspect of aviation.”“It was physically the hardest job I’ve ever done,” Mutawassim continued. “Manual labor is no joke.”
While riding an employee bus — which transported staff from the parking lot to Dallas Love Field Airport — Mutawassim struck up a conversation with Martin. He told him about his hope to one day become a pilot.So they did, and Martin sketched out a path Mutawassim could take to become a pilot.As a Black person, Martin said, it was difficult to find relatable role models in the industry.According to“When I was coming up, I didn’t see hardly anybody that looked like me,” Martin said.
