Hands-On Experience For International Students
Daher and the General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) have announced the opening of their unique international summer internship program for the third year in a row and applications are now being accepted for the hands-on experience.
Two students from North America and two from France will be selected for the eight-week internships at Daher’s production and final assembly sites on both sides of the pond.
The North American students will go to Daher’s headquarters and TBM 960 assembly line facility in Tarbes, France, while the French students will travel to the Kodiak 100 and 900 aircraft are built in Sandpoint, Idaho.
The four students will be working alongside Daher aircraft teams at the EAA AirVenture show in Oshkosh during July and gaining additional benefit through their exposure to a wide cross-section of the aviation industry.
Nicolas Chabbert, CEO of Daher Aircraft said, “With the aviation sector facing unprecedented challenges, we recognize the importance of preparing the next generation to lead it into the future. I was extremely impressed with the maturity and perspective of the interns who participated during the past two years, and I look forward to this new opportunity in 2025."
Pete Bunce, President and CEO of GAMA, added, “We are very proud to once again be teaming with Daher in providing this amazing aviation opportunity to young people on both sides of the Atlantic. General aviation is a dynamic and global industry, and these internships provide incredible opportunities to foster and advance the careers of our future workforce leaders.
“Through this unique program, we are exposing our decision-makers of tomorrow to the international nature of state-of-the-art manufacturing technology and processes that serve as the backbone of our industry’s important ongoing work in sustainability, innovation and safety.”
