Transcript: Why a 30-Year Aviation Pro Became an AIM Instructor
My name’s Roger Miller. I’m an instructor here at AIM Charlotte. I’ve been in aviation for about 30 years鈥�25 of those in general and corporate aviation, actually working on airplanes. I鈥檝e worked on everything from fabric-covered single-seat J-3 Cubs to $80 million Gulfstreams.
My father was a private pilot, so I鈥檝e been around airplanes since I was a little kid. I was always interested in the mechanical side鈥攚hat makes them go, how they fly. Having an A&P certificate in my pocket has opened a lot of doors. I never thought I鈥檇 be a teacher, but here I am鈥攁nd I enjoy it.
I really enjoy the camaraderie and enthusiasm from the students. That鈥檚 what drives a lot of us instructors to teach. We focus on the student and their success. When a student earns their A&P and starts working in the field, it makes us all proud. There鈥檚 no better feeling than that.
I never thought I鈥檇 become an instructor at an A&P school. And here I am. I want to help the younger generation find a great aviation career鈥攋ust like I did. I want to give back to this industry, and that鈥檚 exactly what I鈥檓 doing here at AIM Charlotte. I鈥檝e been given a great opportunity with this company to give back to the industry that gave so much to me.
