Golden Will Be Pursuing A Bachelor Of Science In Aviation Technology
The Fairbanks International Airport Operators' Council (AOC) has announced Jake Golden as their 2021 scholarship recipient. Golden, a recent graduate of West Valley High School, will be attending University of Alaska Anchorage beginning fall 2021 where he will be pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Aviation Technology with an emphasis in Professional Piloting.
After Golden completes his degree program, he plans to stay in Alaska and further his aviation career. He hopes to build flight time working with regional carriers based in Alaska. His ultimate, long-term goal is to work for a major airline.
Golden was elected class president his junior year in high school, commanding officer for the Junior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps, and All-Conference 1st Team and All-State 2nd Team for football. He enjoys hunting and going on road trips with his family, as well as plane spotting and collecting model airplanes. Golden hopes to own his own aircraft one day such as a Super Cub or a Maule. Golden plans to utilize that aircraft to experience rural Alaska not accessible by road or trail.
"The AOC is thrilled to award this $2,000 scholarship to Golden to aid him in making his dream a reality."
