A gala dinner was held at the Hotel Sherry Park in Jerez on Friday evening celebrating the graduation of courses 128 and 129. The group of 17 FTEJerez graduates included a number of self-sponsored cadets as well as 4 Cityjet cadets.

FTEJerez was proud to welcome Cityjet’s Captain Tony Whitmarsh and First Officer Edward Kerr as guests of honour for this special occasion.

Furthermore, cadets Hosam Karim and Sam Halpenny graduated as the first 2 Dublin City University students to complete their training at FTEJerez. Both Hosam and Sam have undertaken their flight training as part of DCU’s BSc in Aviation Management degree, following the university’s choice of FTEJerez as an approved flight training provider in 2012.

The management and staff of FTEJerez would like to congratulate the graduates on having completed this demanding course and would like to wish them well as they commence the next phase of their careers as professional pilots.
