ALBANY, Ga. (WALB) - A young Albany native got a firsthand look at the world of aviation through Delta Air Lines’ annual Dream Flight program.

King Randall II was among approximately 160 students who took flight from Atlanta with an all-Black aviation crew, giving students an opportunity to explore careers in the aviation industry.

The annual charter program, organized by Delta Air Lines and the Organization of Black Aerospace Professionals, aims to introduce young people to the excitement and possibilities of aviation.

As part of the experience, students visited Airbus’ manufacturing facility and Bishop State Community College in Mobile, Alabama, where they had the opportunity to learn more about the industry and potential career paths.

For Randall, the experience offered a unique opportunity to see what a future in aviation could look like.

WALB spoke with the Albany native about his experience and what he took away from the special flight.
