"I have worked at TAAG Angola Airlines for four years now. I left PEA, and I got straight into the classic B737-200, by passing all the exams. After a year-and-a-half, Iwas promoted as a B737-700 First Officer, which I flew for another year-and-a-half. At the moment I have been flying around the world in the brand new B777-300 and the B777-200 as well.
 
I owe a big thanks to the PEA team for taking me this far, without all that 'hard' training, I wouldn't have passed those tests that easily. Therefore, I wouldn't have gotten this far. THANK YOU PHOENIX EAST."
