Sarat Chandra A Email & Phone Number

As an airline pilot based in Abu Dhabi, I am proud to serve with Etihad Airways, where I continue to grow both professionally and personally. My aviation career began with a strong foundation at the US Aviation Academy in Texas, where I not only received my training but also discovered my passion for teaching. During my time as a ground instructor, I had the unique opportunity to bridge cultural and linguistic gaps, helping Chinese cadets connect with American instructors. This experience sparked my love for teaching and mentoring, and it reinforced my commitment to guiding others in their aviation journeys.My professional path led me to India, where I began my airline career with Jet Airways on the Boeing 737. Working for this iconic, legacy airline instilled in me the values of professionalism, high standards, and effective communication. These skills became integral to my development as a pilot and have shaped my approach to every role I take on.After the unfortunate closure of Jet Airways, I transitioned to AirAsia India, where I further expanded my expertise on the Airbus A320. Here, I gained invaluable experience in low-cost, high-efficiency operations, becoming well-versed in the nuances of this aircraft and the airline's unique operational approach.Now, with Etihad Airways, I am excited to be part of a world-class airline and look forward to contributing to its growth while continuing to expand my skills in training and mentoring. The opportunity to live and work in Abu Dhabi has been an incredible step in my career, and I am enthusiastic about the future.Beyond my role as a pilot, I am deeply committed to giving back to the community. As a volunteer mentor with Mentor to Go, I have the privilege of guiding young students on their career paths, offering advice and support as they navigate the world of aviation and beyond.I look forward to continuing my journey in aviation, sharing my knowledge, and contributing to the future of the industry.
