TAC 2019 Speaker Jameel Janjua to Fly Spaceship Two!

For anyone who had the pleasure of hearing Jameel Janjua speak at the TAC 2019 Conference in Calgary, you will be interested to see that he has recently been confirmed as a new test pilot for Virgin Galactic as a member of the Pilot Corps. While Jameel will initially operate in a test pilot capacity, he, along with the rest of the Pilot Corps, will ultimately become the world’s first commercial Spaceship Pilots, flying Future Astronauts on their life-changing journey into space and back.

Jameel Janjua said, “Helping to democratize space travel is a unique honor, and I am thrilled and humbled to be joining the Virgin Galactic Pilot Corps. With society on the cusp of opening space to all humankind, I cannot think of a more privileged role than to be a small part of the amazing team guiding people to their dreams and beyond. I am excited to join our Future Astronauts on their personal and insightful journeys and I’m looking forward to witnessing, first-hand, the variety of reactions these life-changing experiences will evoke.”

How cool is that?!   Read more here: https://www.virgingalactic.com/articles/virgin-galactic-hires-two-new-pilots-into-its-pilot-corps/
