“Airbus is a family oriented company which pays attention to balance business and family life at the same time," says Uta from Germany. 

Uta joined the Airbus family in 2004 as an intern in the A380 manufacturing engineering department in Hamburg during her Mechanical Engineering studies. Since then, Uta’s career path at Airbus has been comprehensive, spanning across technical and managerial roles, as well as, different sites.

In charge of inventing and defining maneuvers performed during test flights, one of Stephane’s greatest challenges as a flight test engineer is knowing the limit between the safety of the test flight and bringing back results. “I feel very lucky to do what I do within the company; our product is wonderful, it’s noble and represents one of humanity’s oldest dreams – flying.”

"Although aviation is rather a male-dominated world, it has been my passion since I was a child. As a flight instructor for helicopters, fixed wings and gliders, I love to fly all of them, but I especially love to fly helicopters. When I joined the company, I started my Airbus career as marketing manager for the training centre newly established in Japan, in 2012. I have now moved to the operational division to become a pilot ground instructor. Studying state-of-the-art technology is what makes me passionate about my job."
