Hello Everyone, My name is Justin Lewis and I am an aspiring Aviation Major with dreams of becoming an Airline Pilot for Southwest. I currently attend Lewis University in the suburbs of Chicago. There I am studying Air Traffic Control Management with minors in Flight, Aircraft Dispatch, and Business. I have always been a huge Southwest supporter and would love to be part of their family one day. I plan on applying for the Flight Operations Internship for Spring 2014.
