Aero Launch

DID YOU KNOW?

The tires of an airliner hit the runway at speeds of up to 250 km/h (155 mph) during landing! Despite this incredible impact, aircraft tires are designed to withstand enormous forces and can perform hundreds of landings before being replaced.

Meet ,

Osanda didn't come from a typical aviation background. He studied Physics, Pure Maths and Applied Maths at the University of Kelaniya, then made a conscious decision to move into aircraft maintenance. That kind of deliberate career pivot takes confidence.

He was also a first XV rugby player at university level, runner-up at the Sri Lanka University Games in 2019 and earned University Colors. Someone who knows how to show up when it counts.

At Sri Lankan Airlines he built hands on experience across base and line maintenance, engine module change facility, avionics, composite materials, sheet metal and safety equipment. A broad, solid foundation that takes most people years to accumulate.

easyJet Engineering just added someone to their team who thinks analytically, works hard and genuinely chose this career. That combination is rarer than most people think.

Osanda, well deserved. Excited to see what comes next for you.
At Aero Launch we take time to understand who our candidates actually are, not just what their CV says.

That is what gets the right people into the right roles. If you want that kind of support, visit us at www.aerolaunch.net

May peace and light fill your heart this Vesak. 🌟

Happy International Flight Attendant Day ❤✈

Behind every smooth takeoff and safe landing is the ultimate dedication of an Aviation Maintenance Technician. Today, we honor the silent heroes whose precision, skill, and tireless efforts keep our skies safe.

Thank you for being the steel backbone of aviation. Wishing a very Happy Aviation Maintenance Technician Day to all the brilliant AMTs out there! 🔧👨‍🔧

Shihan has been working on commercial aircraft since 2012. Over a decade of maintenance, inspections, modifications and defect rectification across the A320 family, A330 and A340, with engines spanning the CFM56, CFM Leap-1A, V2500 and RR Trent 700. He started as a Trainee Aircraft Mechanic with Sri Lankan Airlines and AirAsia Malaysia, learned the craft properly from the ground up, and worked his way to Aircraft Technician at Sri Lankan Airlines where he has been ever since.

Along the way he picked up something most technicians don't bother with. A Master of Business Administration from the University of West of England. An EASA Part 66 B1.1 licence issued by the Civil Aviation Authority of Portugal. A man who clearly never stopped investing in himself.

What struck us about Shihan was something he said when we spoke. That he chose this opportunity at easyJet Engineering not solely for financial reasons, but because he wanted to develop his expertise in documentation management and take on meaningful responsibilities within the EASA regulatory framework. That is not something most people say. That is someone who knows exactly where they are going and why.

Today, Shihan is an Aircraft Technician at easyJet Engineering. Over a decade of knowledge, discipline and ambition, arriving exactly where they were always meant to.

Shihan, you chose this for the right reasons. That matters more than you know.

Meet Diana,

Diana spent six years at Lufthansa Technik Philippines, one of the most respected MRO organisations in the world, working on the A330, A320 and B777 as an Avionics Mechanic. Diagnosing faults, carrying out electrical inspections, handling In-Flight Entertainment systems on widebody aircraft. She also holds a licence from the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines as an Licensed Aircraft Maintenance Engineer.

She is also, quietly, part of a generation of Filipino aviation engineers who are raising the standard of the industry globally. And she happens to be a woman in a field where women are still underrepresented at the technical level.

When we met Diana she wasn't looking for just any opportunity. She wanted the right one.

Today she is an Aircraft Technician at easyJet Engineering. From Philippines to Europe, doing the work she has always been built for.

Diana, you earned this completely. Proud to have played a small part in it.

Experienced in avionics and ready for your next step? If you have an EASA B1.1/B2 Come find us at www.aerolaunch.net

Meet Aubrey,

Aubrey Canonigo Hinlo has spent the last seven years as a Licensed Avionics Engineer at Lufthansa Technik Philippines, one of the most demanding MRO environments in the world. Working on the A320, A330 and B777 for Philippine Airlines line maintenance, under pressure, with limited grounding time, while keeping every safety standard intact. That is not a comfortable job. That is a job that tests you every single day.

Her training record tells you everything about how seriously she takes her craft. CFM56, IAE V2500, PW1100G, the A319, A320, A321, A321neo and the B777 GE90. She holds a Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines licence as an Aircraft Maintenance Specialist in Electronics.

Today, Aubrey is an Aircraft Technician at easyJet Engineering. From Philippines to Europe, carrying seven years of precision and dedication with her.

Aubrey, this is exactly where you belong.

Meet Asantha Jayakody,

Sixteen years of solid aircraft maintenance engineering experience, both in military and civil aviation. Starting from the Sri Lanka Air Force and ending up at Sri Lankan Airlines, with a stop at the Royal Air Force of Oman in between.

Asantha Jayakody began his journey in 2007 as an Airframe Mechanic with the Sri Lanka Air Force, maintaining Mi-171 helicopters, the Hercules C-130, the AN-32, the Cessna 150. He didn't just service them. He supervised line maintenance crews, managed ground support equipment, handled marshalling operations and kept an entire fleet mission ready.

By 2012 he had earned his Advanced Airframe Diploma with Gas Turbine Engine Familiarisation, then went on to complete specialist courses in Helicopter Rotor Blade Repair and Aircraft Structure Repair.

Then came Oman. The Royal Air Force, the Airbus Military CASA 295, fault diagnosis on hydraulics, engines, landing gear, pressurisation systems. A completely different environment and he adapted without missing a step.
He moved into composite and structure repair on the A320 and A330 with Sri Lankan Airlines, working with carbon fibre, glass, Kevlar, vacuum bagging and hot bonding processes. The kind of specialist work that very few people in the world are qualified to do. Sixteen years of showing up and being exceptional at every single one.

Today, Asantha is heading to Malta as an Aircraft Structures Technician. A new country. A new chapter. Built on a foundation that took sixteen years to lay.

Asantha, everything you have given to this industry brought you here. We are just glad we got to be part of the journey.

If you carry that kind of experience and you are ready for what comes next, find us at www.aerolaunch.net

Aadhil Ashmal has a BSc (Hons) in Aircraft Maintenance from General Sir John Kotelawala Defence University, EASA Part 66 B1.1 certified, hands on across the A320-200, A320neo, A321neo and A330 fleet. The technical credentials are immaculate. But that is not what makes Aadhil different.

While still a student, he designed a collision identification and reporting system for ground service vehicles at Sri Lankan Airlines, a real solution to a real problem, built by someone who couldn't wait to start making an impact.

He is also an Affiliate Member of the Royal Aeronautical Society. From my experience a distinction most working technician never seek.

He was already serving as a Junior Aircraft Technician at Sri Lankan Airlines when we found him. Precise. Purposeful. The kind of person who treats every aircraft he touches as a responsibility, not just a task.

Today, Aadhil is an Aircraft Technician at easyJet Engineering. From a classroom in Colombo to one of the continent's most respected engineering operations.

Aadhil, the industry is better with you in it.

If you carry that same quiet fire, we would like to meet you. Find us at www.aerolaunch.net
