At Hewison Aviation, nothing brings us more pride than seeing our students and instructors reach the absolute pinnacle of their aviation careers. Today, we are thrilled to celebrate an extraordinary milestone: Brad Sulik has officially become an FAA Designated Pilot Examiner (DPE)!
Becoming a DPE is one of the most prestigious designations in the aviation industry. DPEs are highly experienced pilots authorized by the FAA to conduct practical tests (checkrides) and issue pilot certificates. This role requires exceptional flight skill, deep regulatory knowledge, and an unwavering commitment to aviation safety.
A Journey of Excellence
Brad’s journey represents the very best of what our flight school stands for. Over the years Brad has demonstrated a passion for teaching. He started out as an instructor with us and helped mold our Part 61 training into an FAA Certificated Part 141 program stepping up to be the Chief Pilot, and now this achievement embodies what a great pilot is always trying to do. He has shared his expertise with so many others serving as a dedicated flight instructor (CFI) here at Hewison we are proud to have him on our team.
“Brad has always demonstrated exemplary judgment, professionalism, and a safety-first mindset,” said Chris Hewison. “Watching him progress all the way to becoming an FAA DPE has been an honor. I have no doubt he will bring fairness, rigor, and great mentorship to every future pilot he evaluates. And, I am proud to have watched him succeed in everything he does”
Inspiring the Next Generation of Pilots
With Brad stepping into this prestigious role, we are reminded of the endless possibilities in aviation career pathways. Whether you are looking to take your very first step with a discovery flight, master landing in strong crosswinds with a tailwheel endorsement, or pursue professional airline careers through our structured FAA Part 61 and Part 141 programs, we are here to support you at every altitude.
