Sky’s the limit for college grads

PILOTS who will be qualified to fly passengers for commercial airlines all over Europe are being trained at one of the country’s most successful regional airports.

A new aviation college, dedicated to training pilots mainly for the fast-growing European airline industry, has been set up at Waterford’s South East Regional Airport and has been approved by the Irish Aviation Authority.

The new college was set up by aviation experts, Mike Edgeworth and Tony Kember, a former Chief Flight Examiner with the British Civil Aviation Authority.
