Samuel Pérez
Flight Instructor (FI PPL CPL UPRT) and TKI at One Air. Aeronautical Content Editor and Aviation Communicator.
I'm Samuel, and my path to becoming a pilot is driven by the deepest of vocations. In my daily work, my job is to pass on all my technical knowledge to the next generation of pilots as a Flight Instructor (FI) and as a Theoretical Knowledge Instructor (TKI) at One Air.
Furthermore, my background includes Airport Operations Management, which gives me a comprehensive perspective of the sector, from the cockpit to the ramp.
Since March 2022, I have also been responsible for writing articles for the One Air blog, maintaining the highest level of technical accuracy. I have also been a radio host for a Digital Aviation podcast. This experience allows me to dissect the most complex secrets—aerodynamics, aircraft systems, or regulations—and turn them into clear and engaging texts.
So, if you are looking for a deep and practical immersion into the technical and operational side of flying, guided by an instructor with experience in training and communication, I invite you to read my analyses. Because in aviation, precision is the foundation of safety, and understanding it is essential for success.
