Jaroslav Kubes, Director of Engineering at Czech Airlines is proud of his young engineer, "The possibility of further education in the field of Aircraft Maintenance Management at the renowned City University of London is of a great benefit for both our colleague David Nemec and Czech Airlines.  The patronage of one of our most important business partners in the sphere of aircraft equipment maintenance, A J Walter Aviation, is admirable, coming as it does in this period, which is difficult for the aviation industry and air carriage.  The success of our colleague David Nemec against such tough competition confirms the high professional level and expertise of Czech Airlines employees."
