    ISSUE 26 | SEPTEMBER 2020 Archerfield Brisbane’s Metropolitan Airport Scholarship winner announced Griffith University aviation student, Chace Eldridge (pictured), has been awarded the inaugural H.C. Brinsmead Scholarship, funded by Archerfield Airport Corporation (AAC). The scholarship honours the pioneering work of Horace Brinsmead, who led what became Australia’s Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) after World War 1. It is open to Griffith University Bachelor of Aviation and Bachelor of Aviation Management students. Chace, 20, is in his final year of Bachelor of Aviation studies and is focused on a career as a commercial pilot in Australia. He was recently accepted into the QANTAS Group Pilot Academy flight training program, which he hopes will provide a direct pathway to achieving his personal goal. The $4000 scholarship was awarded to a Griffith University student who reflects Brinsmead’s values of commitment and teamwork in the establishment of CASA. As well as studying and running his own fitness business, Chace is a Coordinator for the University’s Aviation Mentoring Program which matches students and aviation industry mentors. He is also a leader in the University’s MATES Program for aviation students, and last year mentored high school students at the University’s Flight Camp. Additionally, he is the Legal Officer on the National Committee of the Australian Youth Aerospace Association. “I want to thank AAC for this opportunity to further pursue my career ambitions,” Chace said. “Brinsmead was hugely impactful in shaping Australia to be one of the safest places to fly in the world. He was inspirational because he maintained his passionate beliefs about high standards in civilian aviation despite coming up against sections of the industry bitterly opposed to change.” Away from work and studies, Chace competes in football and cross country.
