MEET THE TEAM

Babar Mughal

Class Three

As a kid I was always around airplanes because of my Dad working for the airlines so naturally I wanted to grow up and join the same industry. In 2017 I began my journey at Centennial Flight Centre and within a few years completed my PPL, CPL & Flight Instructor Rating at Centennial & now passing on the same excellent training onto new students as a Class 4 Instructor. Fun Fact: I completed my first solo, ppl, cpl and Flight Instructor flight tests on C-GIYT

Kathrine Kuharchuk

Kathrine started training at Centennial in 2017 and has since completed all her licenses and ratings here. She always had an interest in education and especially the technical aspects of aviation, leading her also to a mechanical engineering degree. When not flight instructing, she works in an engineering role in the aerospace industry. Kat is excited to share her enthusiasm for all aspects of aviation.
