Corey Fields

Citra, Florida

Corey grew up in Connecticut and attended Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach Florida. While in school, Corey was president of the skydiving club and his first flying job was flying skydivers in a Cessna 182. He graduated ERAU in 1998 with a bachelor’s degree in Aeronautical Science. After a brief internship flying cargo to/from Bermuda, he was hired by a regional airline where he flew passengers in and out of Atlanta as a captain of a CRJ-200 and 700-900. 

In 2019 he was hired by a part 121 cargo airline where he currently works full-time as a 747-400 captain flying cargo all over the world. When he is home, he enjoys building his experimental amphibious airplane and sharing the joy of flying his Cessna 150.
