Sherif Sharaf

Graduated from NIS in 2012. I moved to the US in 2013 to start my education in the aviation industry. As an Aviation enthusiast, I got accepted to start my Bachelor’s Degree in Aeronautical Science with a minor of Business in Aviation from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. Throughout my degree, I got accepted in an astronaut program called Project Possum which provided training and research for suborbital flights in the Mesosphere. Also, I have obtained three Continuing Educational Units (CEUs) in Suborbital Missions Simulation. After receiving my bachelor’s degree and my licenses from Embry-Riddle, I worked as a flight instructor pilot for a year and half teaching a massive variety of students from all over the world to become pilots. Currently, I am an Airline Pilot (first officer) for Republic Airways that flies for American Airlines, Delta and United.
