December 2015 –  A five day tour in Dubai where we had the rare opportunity to visit the hanger and the facility of the Emirates Air Lines. It was a tremendous success. From what we heard that had been the first time that any person had visited the hanger and the facility of Emirates Air Lines.

August 2015 – Visited the hanger and the facility of Sri Lankan Air Lines at Katunayake.

A theoretical session was conducted by the Sri Lankan Aviation College at the same venue. Also, the members got the rare opportunity to use the flight simulator which no other outsider, other than the professional pilots of Air Lines get. It was a tremendous success in our point of view.
