JEDAIAH TINARE ROROA KATAL

I am a diligent, reliable, and hardworking individual with a passion for flying. My childhood dream was to be a pilot and as such I always ensure my work is at an excellent standard and that I am an exemplary employee who always represents my workplace in a professional manner at all times. I have completed tertiary studies and attained my Bachelor Degree in Human Resources, Advanced Diploma in Business Resource Management and Diploma of Business. I was employed at Pacific Energy Aviation Limited up until I went on to do my pilot training in Australia and successfully attained my private pilot and commercial pilot license including my multi-engine command Instrument Rating and ATPL. Upon return to Papua New Guinea, I converted my license and I am currently employed as a charter pilot by Tropic Air on the B200 King Air. I am an active member of the community which is demonstrated through my long-term commitment to my church, sporting achievements and participation in the organization of youth group programs.
