Gavin Ang
Team Writer & Photographer
Gavin graduated from Nanyang Technological University in 2019 with a honours degree in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, and a 2nd Major in Food Science and Technology. He now works in MSD, a major pharmaceutical company in Singapore as a process engineer, where he supports active pharmaceutical ingredient production by performing rectification and modification works to meet production standards. He also plans and executes commissioning projects to improve production turn-around time. As part of his line of work, Gavin also conducts quality and safety related investigations, and participates in safety risk assessments.
As a COVID-spotter, Gavin began planespotting in July 2020 using his trusty Olympus EM10 camera. Over the course of the many months of spotting, he has honed his photography and editing skills, drawing inspiration from many other seasoned spotters. In September 2021, Gavin joined the APP team as a writer, capturing aviation news and developments, from Starlux’s inaugural arrival in Singapore, to the 2022 Singapore Airshow.
Aside from aviation, Gavin has been recreationally learning the violin since 2015. Additionally, Gavin also collects die-cast models of aircraft, with personal favourites include vintage propeller and early jet-era aircraft, as well as special livery aircraft.
