  First Officer (B777/B787)

  In August 2008 I was accepted onto the first intake of Etihad Airways’ international cadet program. In 2010 I graduated from Horizon Flight Academy (now known as Etihad Aviation Training) in Al Ain, UAE with a GCAA (ICAO) ATPL and started my airline career as a second officer on the A320. In late 2013 I joined the A330 fleet and 12 months later the A340. In 2015 I moved to the B777 fleet. I have accumulated most of my hours on wide body aircraft so have operated to six continents, acquiring useful route knowledge and experience along the way. Show less
