Chu's ambition is to train in UK to be a fully qualified Aircraft Engineer in Africa and needs to raise funds for tuition and accommodation

1738996611_pp_chris.jpgWhilst I was working in Kenya , I had a number of Apprentices that I trained and supported financially all the way through to being fully qualified Aircraft Maintenance Technicians. In December 2025 , after a long period of no pay I had to leave Kenya and find alternative work, which I have in Belfast Northern Ireland.

Dixon Chuchu was one of my apprentices that I was unable to assist/support in order to qualify and I left Africa with a heavy heart , many wonderful memories and great friends. I would still like to help him achieve his ambition , by studying at Perth UHI on the 'Zero to Hero' Aviation Engineers Course, but currently lack sufficient resources in order to comit to this life changing goal for Dixon ChuChu.

I have therefore initiated a 'CrowdFunding' attempt in order to change Chuchu's life and make a life changing event for Chu and African Aviation's future.
