Hi! My name is Jeffrey Watts and I am a fourth year student at Purdue University in the School of Aviation and Transportation Technology. Currently, I work as a Flight Instructor (CFI-I and MEI) where I stay determined to maintain the highest level of safety in the flight deck. Additionally, I serve as a Teaching Assistant in the HS125 Level D Simulator, owned by Purdue University. In this role, I assist my peers with the transition to turbine operations by providing instruction relating to crew coordination and collaboration as well as adherence to Standard Operating Procedures (SOP’s). My biggest passion comes from serving as the Executive Director and Head of Operations for Purdue Aviation Day (PAD) 2024 and 2025, the largest student run organization on campus. Alongside my peers, I oversee the event to ensure a premium and enjoyable experience for guests.
