Inspiring the next generation of aviators: First Aviation Academy lights up DLSU-Dasmariñas Impact Career Fest 2026

Fresh off the heels of their newly minted partnership, First Aviation Academy (FAA) took its mission to the skies of Cavite, participating in the highly anticipated DLSU-Dasmariñas Impact Career Fest held last June 9 and 10, 2026.

The two-day event provided a premier platform for FAA to connect directly with aspiring pilots eager to transform their dreams of flight into a structured, world-class career.

FAA’s Sales and Marketing Team engaged with hundreds of Lasallians, mapping out clear pathways from graduation to the captain’s seat. Visitors were provided with comprehensive marketing and program materials outlining FAA’s premier course tracks.

The absolute highlight of the event was the installation of FAA’s flight simulator right on the convention grounds. Rather than just reading about flight metrics, DLSU-D students got the rare, exhilarating chance to sit in the cockpit, grab the controls, and experience the thrill of virtual flight first-hand.

Guided by FAA’s experienced flight instructors, student “pilots” practiced standard takeoffs, basic aerial maneuvers, and approaches. The interactive display effectively bridged the gap between raw curiosity and true career inspiration, allowing students to visualize themselves commanding real aircraft like FAA’s advanced glass-cockpit Garmin G1000-equipped fleets.

A Stronger Partnership for Future Aviators

This event marks a significant activation following the official Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed between DLSU-Dasmariñas and First Aviation Academy in late May. By bringing airline-standard equipment and career counseling directly to the campus, FAA is actively solidifying its commitment to providing accessible, top-tier aviation pathways for Lasallians.
