Today my 17-year-old daughter became a licensed pilot. In a unique circumstance, our flight academy has FAA self-examining authority and I am the Administrative Examiner that issues her the temporary license (One of our Check Instructors completed her checkride). I told her that we must frame her temporary certificate, that she will not appreciate why today but she will 20 years from now as my name is listed as the issuing examiner. I am incredibly proud of my daughter and will forever cherish the bond of flight that we now share. Now she has to pass her driver’s license test.
Congratulations to our team in iur Mumbai office.

As 2023 draws to a close, we need to acknowledge our incredible teams at International Aero Academy, International AeroTech Academy and International Aero Charters. International Aero Academy experienced a YOY 81% increase in flight training revenue, an 88% increase in flight hours and an 88% increase in instruction hours. We also successfully graduated our first flight instructors into the Spirit Airlines program, our former instructors are now flying A320's for Spirit Airlines. International AeroTech Academy launched its bespoke night program for Amazon Career Choice, affording Amazon employees the opportunity to become professional, licensed aircraft maintenance technicians. International Aero Charters Air Carrier Certificate was upgraded last April by the FAA to allow unlimited aircraft onto our certificate for charter operations and we were approved for in-house Check Airman. With respect and admiration, Happy New Year to our incredible teams!!
