Experienced aeronautical engineer and former United Nations trainer, John Cassidy, has been appointed as the Aviation, Tourism and Travel Training Organisation’s (ATTTO’s) new Industry Training Advisor.
John spent over 20 years working for the Royal New Zealand Air Force (RNZAF), before joining the United Nations. He has recently returned from Haiti, where he served as United Nations Projects, Planning and Training Manager for the Aviation Section.
John has a New Zealand Certificate in Engineering, Aeronautics, and an Associate Diploma of Engineering, Aerospace Systems. He joins ATTTO’s existing team of aviation industry experts and will work closely with Senior Industry Training Advisor Dave Evans.

ATTTO supports training for more than 60 aviation employers across New Zealand, including the RNZAF, Air New Zealand and Airways.
