These were soon followed by remote-controlled fibreglass planes with either electric motors or combustion engines in my teenage years. As a 17-year-old I joined a pilot training association to learn how to actually fly. In less than a year I gained my private pilot licence (PPL).<\/p>\n<p>After completing my school education I went on to study aerospace engineering at the University of Stuttgart. I completed my university degree in parallel with my training as a commercial airline pilot, and I also gained my instructor qualification at the same time. I planned to work as an airline pilot and also to carry on engineering activities in all areas related to aircraft construction and aerodynamics. I went on to set up my own company under the name BauAir, which is my surname in a slightly modified form.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"VIiyi\" lang=\"en\"> <span class=\"JLqJ4b ChMk0b\" data-language-for-alternatives=\"en\" data-language-to-translate-into=\"de\" data-phrase-index=\"2\">On the aviation side, I have many years of experience as a commercial pilot on the Airbus A320, Airbus A380, and Boeing B787, many years of experience as a flight instructor on the Cessna Citation C525 with a focus on IFR-procedures, operation in the 2-man cockpit (MCC) and the mediation of jet<\/span> <span class=\"JLqJ4b ChMk0b\" data-language-for-alternatives=\"en\" data-language-to-translate-into=\"de\" data-phrase-index=\"3\">handling characteristics on twin-engine aircraft as well as many flying hours on single- and multi-engine aircraft.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"VIiyi\" lang=\"en\"><span class=\"JLqJ4b ChMk0b\" data-language-for-alternatives=\"en\" data-language-to-translate-into=\"de\" data-phrase-index=\"5\">On the engineering side, I can now point to extensive experience from the model building period, from various work during my studies to numerous projects on aerodynamics optimization, aircraft retrofitting (with Supplemental Type Certificate &#8211; STC) and from aircraft development TR230 Traveler. <\/span><\/span><span class=\"VIiyi\" lang=\"en\"><span class=\"JLqJ4b ChMk0b\" data-language-for-alternatives=\"en\" data-language-to-translate-into=\"de\" data-phrase-index=\"6\">In addition, I completed a dissertation with the title &#8220;Evaluation of a man-machine interface of an easy-handling flight control system&#8221;.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-516 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.bauair.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/RolfBauer_200702k.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"237\" height=\"316\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bauair.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/RolfBauer_200702k.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.bauair.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/RolfBauer_200702k-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 237px) 100vw, 237px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A fascination with flying and a passion for aircraft have shaped me from childhood.
