Not all our alumni end working in the space sector - some pursue other dreams. Daniel Martins graduated in 2003 after doing an industrial placement with EADS Astrium (who also supplied his final year project) and a group project looking at the thermal protection for an inflatable re-entry capsule for ESA's Young Engineer's Satellite -2 project (which eventually flew in 2007). After graduation, Daniel's dream of flying became stronger than his dream of engineering and he returned to Portugal to learn to fly. After a period as a flight instructor he obtained his type rating with TAP and later moved to Macau where he is a pilot for Air Macau flying A319/320/321s.Sunday, 26 April 2009
