About

Squawk Foundation collects stories in aviation

Inspired by forums and coffee chats, we aggregate the most precious piece of knowledge that such a complex career can give — unpolished stories navigating through challenges and breakthroughs. If you are a pilot, cabin crew, air traffic or ramp controller, aircraft mechanic, dispatcher, manager, or any other aviation specialist, we'd like to hear your story.

What we do

  • · Curate a knowledge base on aviation career twists.
  • · Publish slightly edited, selected stories from the industry.
  • · Collect knowledge on essential topics to guide all aspects of aviation.
  • · Maintain practical self-support tools and reading lists.

What we are not

  • · A regulator, an employer, or a union.
  • · A replacement for therapy or career counseling.
  • · A reporting channel for safety or operational concerns.
  • · A place that asks for your name unless you offer it.

Send us a synopsis

​That's how we get to know you and your story.

03

​Interview-based conversations

​We conduct 35-40 minute interviews online to listen to you and record your story.

04

Editorial pick

The last check defines whether your story gets published or needs a reframing.

If any of this sounds like a colleague — or like you —
