βI would 100% recommend the ΠΤΈ£ΞεΤΒΜμ aviation program,β said 2023 ΠΤΈ£ΞεΤΒΜμ University graduate Jessica Miladinovich during a recent interview at her alma mater. After earning her Bachelor of Science degree in aeronautics, Miladinovich is now an airship pilot for The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company.
Thatβs right. This ΠΤΈ£ΞεΤΒΜμ alumna flies the iconic Goodyear Blimp.

She works alongside 2003 graduate Adam Basaran (pictured above), who serves as assistant chief pilot for Goodyear.
Both speak highly of the training they received at ΠΤΈ£ΞεΤΒΜμβs College of Aeronautics and Engineering and how it thoroughly prepared them for successful careers in aviation β whether that means piloting a fixed-wing airplane or one of Americaβs most beloved aircraft.
βAmongst the different pilots that I meet, when I run into a pilot who went through the ΠΤΈ£ΞεΤΒΜμ flight program, often, thereβs a high degree of consistency in how they develop as a professional pilot; [they are] somebody who is not just operating the machine but can work with the customers and the public. That has been really consistent over time,β Basaran said.
See how ΠΤΈ£ΞεΤΒΜμ prepared Adam and Jessica to fly Americaβs most iconic aircraft.
