Hi, welcome to my profile page! Glad to share the following experiences and insights:

How I Switched

> From Military to Commercial Aviation Leadership

> Founding my own company

> International career moves including Europe and Middle East

How I Solved

> Cross-Cultural Leadership & Team Scaling: Successfully transitioned from leading military subordinates to managing and scaling diverse, multicultural engineering and operational teams (such as doubling a 25+ member civilian team at FTEJerez), fostering high-performance cultures across different geographies from Europe to the Middle East.

> Turnaround of Commercial Fleet Efficiency: At FTEJerez, applied Lean Maintenance principles to reduce the man-hour per flight-hour (MH/FH) ratio by over 20% and boost fleet availability from 60% to 75% while scaling flight hours past 33,000/year.

> Building a National Aviation Academy from Scratch: At Oman Aviation Academy, successfully established the Middle East's first EASA-approved ATO and General Aviation service center concurrently.

> Military Fleet Optimization: Slashed P-3C operational costs by 7M€ over 5 years and raised operational readiness by 33% via a custom-made maintenance program developed with the US Navy and Lockheed Martin.
