A practice room for pilots.
EPC Aviation exists for one reason: to give pilots access to a Boeing 737 simulator in a low-pressure environment, where the only goal is to get better.
Training without the weight of assessment.
Most simulator time a pilot gets is during a check — a formal assessment where the stakes are high and the pressure is real. There is very little opportunity to simply practice.
EPC Aviation was founded to fill that gap. We operate a Boeing 737 simulator at Wilson Airport in Nairobi, open to pilots who want to rehearse procedures, build familiarity with the aircraft, or work through scenarios at their own pace.
No examiner in the right seat. No pass or fail. Just focused, deliberate practice on the aircraft type that dominates African commercial aviation.

Chief Executive Officer
Walter brings decades of aviation industry experience to EPC Aviation. His vision is straightforward: make simulator access available to pilots in East Africa without the barriers of cost, scheduling, and institutional gatekeeping that have historically limited practice time.
Under his leadership, EPC Aviation has established itself at Wilson Airport — Nairobi's general aviation hub — positioning the simulator where pilots already are.
Wilson Airport, Nairobi.
Wilson Airport is East Africa's busiest general aviation airport and the operational heart of Nairobi's aviation community. It's where charter operators, flight schools, and commercial crews converge daily.
Our facility sits within the airport grounds, making it accessible for pilots already based at Wilson or transiting through Nairobi. No detours, no travel overhead — the simulator is where the pilots are.
