“I am delighted to welcome Jameel Janjua and Pat Moran to the Virgin Galactic Pilot Corps. Jameel and Pat both come with a tremendous range and depth of experience of both military and civilian aviation, and test flying in particular. Their backgrounds, in addition to their accomplished interpersonal skills, will make them hugely valuable – particularly as we prepare for, and soon enter, commercial passenger operations. Virgin Galactic is fortunate to have secured the services of two such high caliber pilots, and we eagerly anticipate their contributions to the team as a whole.” Source: Dave Mackay, Virgin Galactic’s Chief Pilot, discussing the addition of two more pilots to their operations.
