Soon enough, I grew convinced that joining Satair, a reputable company in the aerospace aftermarket, would expose me to leading airlines and MROs where I can contribute to safeguarding the continued airworthiness of aircraft while leveraging my diverse skills. In addition, belonging to the big Airbus family and becoming part of a leading company in the aerospace industry has benefited my career in many aspects.
