About Capt.A.D.Manek
Capt.A.D.Manek founded The Skyline Aviation Club in 1987. He is
currently presiding as Managing Trustee of The Skyline Aviation
Club. Born in 1961, he had ambition of becoming a pilot since
child hood.
His tryst with aviation started with a visit to
a flying club to find out how to become a pilot in 1979. He acquired
his Private Pilot's License from DGCA in 1985 in India. He was
able to complete his Commercial Pilot's Certificate training with
Instrument Rating, Multi Engine Rating and Instructor Rating from
U.S.A in 1989.
Due to lack of information, Guidance and proper
tarining it took ten years to make his dream come true as a commercial
Pilot. He took up job for a short time with Air India Employees
Guild Training Center, Mumbai as a Principal. The strong reason
behind for mation of The Skyline Aviation Club is to help new
comers to acheive their goal of becoming a pilot in shortest possible
time by giving them proper information, guidance and best available
training which Capt.A.D.Manek missed in making his career.
He has acquired 15 years of experience of teaching
aviation subjects by training 445 trainee Commercial Pilots, 163
trainee Aishostess & Flight Pursers, 584 trainee Private Pilots,
522 students for Amateur Wireless License.
Many of his students are currently employed as Pilots,
Airhostesses and Flight Pursers with various airlines in India
and abroad. Basic qualities acquired during training with National
Cadet Corps (NCC) Armour Division has made him to lead Skyline
efficiently with a motto "Beyond Time at All Times"
