Mason's passion for aviation started as a child watching airplanes take off with his dad at Cable Airport in Upland. That early curiosity grew into a focused path toward professional aviation.

He graduated from the University of Oregon and became a member of United Airlines' Aviate Program after being accepted into United's training academy. At Aviators Flight Academy, he helps students train with precision, structure, and purpose.

As a Cirrus pilot and CFII, Mason brings advanced cockpit experience and a professional standard to each lesson.
