In mid-July, David attended interviews in Cairns for a role in MAF International’s Aviation Department. He has now been offered the position of Training Captain for the single-engine piston fleet of MAF aircraft worldwide, known as the FTC-SEP.
This role is based in the MAFI regional office in Cairns with the training performed at the new MAFI Flight Training Centre. This is being established at Mareeba Aerodrome, about a 70 km drive from Cairns. He will be involved in both new and experienced pilot training in the Africa and Asia Pacific regions.
We will therefore be moving to Cairns in mid-September for David to attend an initial induction course starting on 22 September. He will be renewing some of his lapsed ratings in the following months. We had been anticipating a move within six months but this is a lot sooner than we expected!
