Michael’s passion for aviation started at the age of 14 when he first learned to fly. After completing his training in Melbourne, he worked as a flight instructor and spent three rewarding years teaching students of all ages, including airline cadets, university students, and hobby pilots. Michael specialised in multi-engine IFR training and loved helping students achieve their flying goals.

Later moving into the airline world, Michael flew Metroliners for a regional airline in Australia. Michael enjoyed the opportunity working as a training captain further refining his instructing techniques in a multi crew environment.

Currently, Michael is a first officer for a major Australian airline on the Boeing 737 based out of Melbourne.

With his experience in both instruction and real-world airline operations, he aims to make the training experience as relaxed and enjoyable as possible. He enjoys sharing practical knowledge from his time on the 737, helping each student work towards their career goal.
