About

I am an experienced British pilot having been operating in both single pilot and multi crew
operations engaged in civil and para military environments for many years, this has been in support
of various fields of endeavour including International Oil and gas companies, UK police service,
government VVIP flights and National HEMS/Helimed operations, both in the commercial civil
and the off-shore Oil and gas sectors. I am in the position that I am seeking an employment avenue
that will enable me to utilise my previous working experiences for the benefit of my new employer.
My working history experiences and responsibilities have been (but are not limited to) – General
operational command pilot duties in multi crew and single pilot operations (on shore and offshore) security / survey flts and HEMS in VFR, IFR, Night and NVG conditions. I am a line training captain with an FI qualification and am an IOGP qualified AW139 command pilot (Shell), I also have risk assessment and SMS management of operations experience.
I believe I am very much an outgoing 'people person' who has the interests of operational safety forefront in my heart and believe in using good communications in an effective way to manage flights, personnel and any flight safety issues.
I am a natural English speaker (Level 6 EPC).
