Introduction

My name is Steven Zhao. My interest in aviation began when I was in middle school. My family owned a restaurant near the DTW and I enjoyed watching airplanes fly overhead as they were landing. I'm an aviation management major and I graduate this December. My future plans is to work at an FBO after graduation and ultimately would like to be an airport operations officer at an airport authority or something similar. At the same time, I plan to obtain an AAE certification from the AAAE ( American Association of Airport Executives). My interest are mainly in airport operations and airport management. Two areas of current aviation topics that I'm interested in is the competition between aircraft manufacturers and new technologies in aviation.
