About
An Aerospace Engineer sharing his passion for flight
Callum Parker is an aerospace engineer in the UK. In his current role, he designs jet engines for Rolls- Royce where he leads an engineering team to improve the safety of their civil airliner engines.
His passion for flight stems from his first trips abroad when he was young. His grandfather would always take him to see the cockpit of the plane and meet its pilots.
This ignited his curiosity and anything aviation-related he could lay his hands on became gold dust.
Spending his formative years learning everything he could about aircraft naturally led him to study aerospace engineering at university.
Callum now holds a First-Class Honours degree in Aeronautical Engineering and a master’s degree in Aerodynamics.
He has been awarded numerous scholarships for his studies in aerospace and travelled the world in pursuit of his passion.
He is now studying for his Private Pilot’s Licence (PPL) and in the future hopes to design, build and fly his own aircraft.
Callum is an Associate of the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) and a member of the Light Aircraft Association (LAA).
His hobbies include flying, hiking, cycling, offshore sailing and gardening.
