Background

About Philipp Scherer

I started my career with an apprenticeship as an aircraft mechanic at eurocopter. My teacher at that time was an old-established master of his trade and inspired us already in early years for the craftmanship. In addition to our specialist field, he also taught us interdisciplinary manufacturing processes as well as desirable values and attitudes. After I had finished my apprenticeship years, I made up for upper vocational school in the field of technology. Whenever the time allowed, I went along with my job as an aircraft mechanic. However, the idea of studying aeronautical engineering matured in me. And so I did. Looking for a way to earn money, I ended up in the laboratories of my professors and earned my living as a scientific assistant. After that I left the university without a degree and took over a position as station leader in the field of composite assembly and final equipment at my old employer, which is now called Airbus Helicopters. Meanwhile I am looking for new challenges because I am especially enthusiastic about prototyping and 3d printing.
