I’m Nick Richardson, a British Army AH-64 Apache pilot currently transitioning into the U.S. aviation industry. I have over 1,600 hours total time, including extensive rotary-wing military experience and growing fixed-wing multi-engine time. I hold FAA Commercial Single and Multi-Engine Land certificates with an Instrument Rating, have completed ATP-CTP, and am preparing for my ATP checkride.

I bring a professional, safety-focused military aviation background, strong crew coordination skills, and leadership experience from operating in demanding environments. I’m seeking opportunities in regional airline, Part 135, or corporate aviation where I can continue to grow, contribute to a team, and build a long-term flying career.
