Cutter Aviation’s President and CEO, Will Cutter, hosted a breakfast on Wednesday, Sept. 20, 2023, dedicated to honoring 10 outstanding students from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University who received the Bill Cutter Memorial Scholarship. This special occasion took place at Cutter Aviation’s location within the Prescott Regional Airport.
At the event, students and guests heard from Dr. Thomas Drape, current dean of Embry-Riddle’s College of Business, Security and Intelligence, as well as Will Cutter, who congratulated them on their exceptional achievements. Following, the group was given an in-depth tour of Cutter Aviation’s Prescott FBO and maintenance facility.
“We are extremely proud of all of these students,” said Will Cutter. “At Cutter aviation, we understand the importance of supporting the next generation of aviators. It is an honor to encourage them their education and aviation career.”
The Bill Cutter Memorial Scholarship was created in 2018 by Cutter Aviation, serving as a tribute to William “Bill” Cutter, a passionate and long-time aviator. This scholarship honors his legacy with the intention of supporting business aviation students at Embry-Riddle who display outstanding dedication to an aviation education.
Cutter Aviation is thrilled to maintain its long-time relationship with Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University and remains committed to awarding additional scholarships to its students in the years to come.
