And here comes his story:
MECHANIC, PILOT AND ESTACA STUDENT FIRST
My name is Etienne Vandame, I was born in Paris and I am 39 years old. I was fascinated by the aviation since I was teenager. I started my part time summer job as mechanic in the aeroclub of Chaveney and the first thing I made with the money I gained was to pay my pilot license. After finishing my secondary education I continued to study aeronautic in ESTACA Paris. I graduated in 2002 as a engineer of aerodynamic. Meanwhile I traveled and studied abroad and maintained the aircraft. Among my remarkable experience belong my intership in Mexico, where I reached as well engineer deree in aeronautic.

INTERSHIP IN VZLU PRAGUE WAS A CRUTIAL MILESTONE
Before my final exam I came to Prague to VZLU to complete my thesis. At that time I found out, that the Czech republic is , let's say, “paradise” of small and general aviation. This fact made me to stay.
First I was working for well established companies as Evektor, Aero Vodochody and Letecka tovarna, but I wanted to see the aircraft in his complexity that's why I deceided to become freelacer and to provide consultancy in aerodynamic analyzes and aircraft design for small producers in all Europe.

PHYSICS IS STILL MY PASSION
As a foreigner in the Czech Republic I was facing divers challenges – sometimes they were quite hard.
My competitive advantage is the flexibility and efficiency. Thanks to my complex experience in aviation, I know the aircraft from each screw, via its construction of architecture and aerodynamic shape of wings to overhaul and maintenance of the aircraft.
Physics is my passion and I combine it with experience in programming, thus I am able to create tailored software for each business task. Results of the computation are thus fast and precise.
