Dear CFAT Scholarship Applicants:
It is with pleasure that we offer a four day Corporate Flight Attendant Training scholarship to a commercial flight attendant who has lost their position due to a department closing resulting in bankruptcy. I know what that feels like. In 1984 my airline, Capitol Air closed its doors much to the dismay of many employees. It was shocking. I felt like I lost part of my family as well as a job. I actually felt paralyzed until I realized that I was the author of my future and after my grieving process committed myself to becoming a Corporate Flight Attendant in the Business Aviation industry. There was a wonderful woman named Joy who gave me my first break in this industry. I want to give that break back to a commercial flight attendant that has no job and wants to fly corporate. Whomever you are, I look forward to launching you into a new career within aviation. Business Aviation!
Good luck.
