About Me

DOB 28/01/1963
Poole, United Kingdom
Throughout my working career I have been involved with Aviation.
Starting out in Air Traffic Control then moving onto Vintage Aircraft Construction and Maintenance. Progressing to Flight Operations followed by Customs and Fishery Patrols, leading onto the Flight Deck of a Global Airline.
I then joined the Instructor core where I progressed from Ground Instructor to Simulator and Flight Instructor, followed by Line Check Captain and Examiner.
As a Senior Instructor and Senior Examiner I mentored a group of ten Instructors in competency based training methods. I also conducted Assessment of Competence on new and current SFI/TRI & SFE/TRE and wrote new Recurrent and LOE programs for line pilots.
As part of the Embraer 190 Introduction Team, I spent time in Brazil learning the technical specifications of the new aircraft and completing my type rating. I used this experience to train new instructors on the new aircraft type. This led into Base Training where I instructed pilots and Instructors onboard the aircraft.
I have created and introduced a Computer Based Training Program for a Groundschool and have written Simulator programs for Type Qualification, Recurrent Training and LPC/OPC examinations.
I am fully conversant in Microsoft Office and have experience of website building together with a good knowledge of computer hardware, operating systems and networks.
I am now offering my skills on a freelance basis for Pilot Training and Examinations. I can also offer SFI/TRI training and I am also able to do Simulator Approval and Acceptance.
I live in Poole, United Kingdom, within driving distance of London Gatwick, Farnborough & Exeter. I am also willing to conduct training outside of the United Kingdom.
