I joined the Asian Aviation Centre Pvt (Ltd) in the year 1996 to THE FIRST BATCH to follow Degree program with Kingston University London UK. What can I say? For sure AAC is one of the best schools in Srilanka for Aviation Studies. During my days I helped to build the Wind Tunnel but not sure if that still exists, Our team countless hours to cut open a Russian radial engine and Chinese Jet engine for students to learn internal operations. Endless yelling from Mr. K.B. Rajapaksa, ONE WHO TAUGHT ME LOT ABOUT everything I need to know about aeroplanes. I took my first flying lesson back in 1994 ( soon after my OLs) at AAC. Experience and support I got from AAC helped to develop myself to become as an engineer.

Past few years I worked for a few companies such as National Physical Laboratory- Teddington UK 1999-2002 Jr Engineer, Contract Engineer ( Material Processing and Manufacturing) UK 2002-2005, Applied Composite Engineering- Indianapolis, IN, USA 2005-2006, Vought/Boeing Dallas TX 2006-2007, Materials, Processes and Physics Engineer and currently im working as a Materials, Process, and Physics Engineer at Boeing South Carolina.
I sincerely thank all my Lecturers and staff at AAC for this tremendous journey they have taken my life through, I recommend all my fellow Sri Lankan brothers and Sisters to take the path of Aerospace Engineering as it certainly can bring you career and experience that is certainly life-changing. Following your childhood dreams, is doing justice to yourself!
