Episode 54 is out today with guest Cameron Boekhoff!
Cameron Boekhoff is a Canadian Aircraft Maintenance Engineer as well as a Private and Glider pilot.
First exposed to aviation at local fly-in breakfasts down the road from his family’s farm in Eastern Ontario, Cameron found airplanes fascinating from a young age. Soon after joining his local squadron of the Royal Canadian Air Cadets, a glider flight cemented his desire to fly. With that goal in mind, Cameron took his squadron’s ground school every year, as well as participating in summer courses. His hard work paid off and he earned, and successfully completed the Glider and Power scholarships with the Cadet program.
Cameron attended Canadore College in North Bay, Ontario, where he completed the two-year Aviation Technician- Aircraft Maintenance course. Following graduation, he went on to work in private and flight school maintenance roles. Through that work, he was able to gather the experience necessary to earn an AME license with an M1 Rating. Since earning that rating in 2018, Cameron has participated in many training and continuing education opportunities to build himself for the future. In late 2021, Cameron made the move to his first airline job, where he is working towards earning his M2 rating.
In his free time Cameron enjoys fishing, shooting sports, and hopes to expand his capabilities as a canoeist and hiker. He currently also volunteers on the board of the Webster Memorial Trophy Competition and is the producer and editor of this show!
