About our Guest Speaker:
I like to call myself a multi-passionate aviator: I love flying whether it's in an airplane as big as a Boeing 747 or as something as small as a Robinson R22 helicopter.
I am proud to say that I have an ATP certificate in both AMEL and in helicopters and I have a type certificate for the Embraer ERJ145 and Boeing 747. I am now in training to become a helicopter CFI.
I always wanted to be a pilot, but like so many when I was younger I did not have the funds yet for flight training. I became an Aerospace engineer, because if I can't fly them, why not help build them. My engineering job helped pay for my certificates and 5 years ago I finally took the leap of faith and left my flight test engineering job behind for a career in the cockpit. 10 years after I started flight training I finally made it to the right seat of a regional airline in 2019. Even after losing my job due to the pandemic, I still kept going for my dreams, the dreams just changed a bit. It was a strange and stressful period after I lost my job, and my journey has taken me now to being in a part 141 program to become a helicopter instructor at 39 years old.
I am a strong believer that you can do anything you set your mind to with commitment, consistency and clarity. I share that message on my YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/nancybradshawcficommercialpilot. With my online presence I want to provide aviation information, motivation and inspiration, through my content on YouTube as well as on my website: https://flygoodaviation.com/
My motto is simply: stop dreaming and start flying!
