The actor recently revealed that he had been offered a scholarship from an aviation school. He also visited Alpha Aviation Group, located at Clark Freeport Zone in Mabalacat, Pampanga, to explore its facilities.

Personal dream niya to be a pilot. So, sabi ko, ‘Sige, Dad, since 59 ka na, ako na lang.’ Hopefully, kung kaya, this year matapos ko ‘yung course. Then, lipad-lipad na tayo.”
His father, affectionately known as Daddy Bae, also uploaded a video capturing Alden’s first experience with the flight simulator, proudly labeling it, “Our Future Pilot.”
With this new chapter unfolding, it’s clear that Alden is determined to soar toward new achievements—and fans can’t wait to witness him take to the skies in the months ahead.
