An amazing (and challenging) “start up year” has soon passed

An amazing (and challenging) "start up year" has soon passed.

I am so happy and proud of our students who believe in us as much as we believe in them! Early on we decided to implement a feedback culture in the school where everyone participates, students and staff alike. This is to continually improve, be humble for the future and above all – to become a new kind of flight academy with sustainability and consideration at its core. I have to say that this has paid off well. We have engaged students with great attitudes, disciplined and high performers, but also who take care of each other, give feedback and have a innovative mindset. I look forward to a challenging 2023 as we continue to build and stabilize the business together. Merry Christmas! 

Merry Christmas!

/ Cecilia Holmlund, Operations Manager
