A Success Story: Kwame Sarpong

By Erica Johnson on Apr 09, 2015 14:04 PM |

Kwame Sarpong, a student from Ghana, has recently finished his studies at Phoenix East Aviation and embarked in voyage to pursue his dreams to be an airline pilot.

A couple of months later we have received this from Kwame:

Phoenix East is no doubt a leader in Aviation training in the world. The entire training set up in the school, gives everyone a head start to any airline in the world. The curriculum is structured with the necessary checks in place to ensure that students get the required training tools to equip them for today’s challenging airline industry.

After training in Phoenix, I stand taller than my colleagues from other flight schools worldwide. And I recommend Phoenix East to every.

Please find attached my picture. I am flying with Africa World Airlines in Ghana, flying Embraer 145s.
