What ignited your passion for flying?
My mom worked for SAA as cabin crew for 20 years so I’ve always been surrounded by family friends who are in the industry. Hearing all of their stories and experiences really ignited the passion I have for aviation. I’ve been very fortunate that I have been able to travel around the world. Going to different airports, seeing different types of beautiful aircrafts and the idea of one day being able to travel as a career really cemented my aspirations.

How many aircraft are you rated on?
I am rated on 5 different aircraft. The Piper Cherokee, Arrow and Seneca. The Sling as well as the Cessna 210

Sling 2 – It is a good training aircraft. I admire its capability of being able to cruise at a considerable speed while being able to go to places one can only imagine and land on some of the toughest terrains.
