Nice one...wish you all the best.

What type of engine were you looking at in your 3rd and 4th pictures? Is it a gas turbine or a reciprocating engine?

What sort of aircraft do you use for your practicals?

Aviation courses are usually very expensive at NCAT. I remeber back in 2012 when I wanted to enroll for PPL at NCAT, I was billed 7.5 million.

Lwkmd.

Haha hahaha

My dad was a marine engineer with the defunct Nigeria National shipping line, he read mechanical engineering, then was fortunate to be drafted into the coy while he was teaching physics, he "repaired", he also worked with private oil vessels after the shipping line went burst.


I have a current boss, who is also a registered aircraft engineer, I know he was doing maintainance and repairs for Emirates air till 2018, I was the one who built the bases for his container at Abuja airport.

My uncle read computer engineering, I have watched him doing repairs and maintainance to routers, systems( not computer systems alone, networking systems) at Federal ministry of Works and Foreign affairs during the days of Hakeem Baba Ahmed as PS.

The guys fixing the transmission equipments for star times are engineers.

Please, in the current Nigeria, what would an aircraft Engineer at Air peace design? An Airbus 380-300? A boeing 747 max? Or a Tupolev, Antonov? Is he designing the flaps? The horizontal stabilizer or the rudder?

Guy, Nigeria or Africa right now is made up of more repairing and maintaining engineers, aside Civil, Electrical, Computer to a lesser extent.

Can't say much about Petroleum or Chemical Engineering tho.

As a son of a retired air traffic controller, I know how many times I flew around naija free of charge cos of my dad was an air traffic controller.

As far as naija airspace is concerned, this guy may never pay to fly in his life.

If u know I know.
