News From Matt - August 2023

new job message

 

Success!

Hi David,

I just wanted to drop you a quick note to say that I’ve received my licence back from the CAA today - complete with a renewed IR and MEP.

I cannot begin to thank you enough for all of your effort, and for kindly putting me in touch with the necessary people at the CAA. It really is hugely appreciated; I have not taken this for granted at all.

I hope that you have a lovely summer, and I look forward to seeing you again at the next revalidation!

All the very best,

Peter Hartshorne

 

Made it !

Very good afternoon David,
Here it is as promised : the photo in front of the plane! You gave me my IR licence in September 2020 in Oxford (at CAE). Since that, I spent one year in France working for Dassault Aviation before moving to Ryanair and start flying a year ago in March 2022. Starting in Spain and now flying in Poland (Spain was way better;), probably in France soon.
The view of my office is very nice. Thank you for your contribution to my career.
Have safe flights and lot of fun.
Kind regards, Charles Abrand
