| Re: Membership involvement in production or flying of aircraft I worked on the Dash 8 for a while at U.S. Air. One of the finest passenger aircraft built in my book. I now am the Flight Operations Manager for an Air Ambulance company. We fly the Dolphin, EC-145, EC-135, and the BK-117. In my spare time I volunteer at the National Museum of the USAF in Dayton, OH. I also fly warbirds with the CAF, do Young Eagle Flights with the EAA, and am a member of the National Museum of Naval Aviation, EAA, NMUSAF, Air America Foundation, AOPA, Warbirds of America, Planes of Fame. | |||||||||||||

| Re: Membership involvement in production or flying of aircraft I used to be a project engineer for Pratt & Whitney on PW2000 (B757) and F117 (C-17) engines. I then went to work for Williams International (small jet engines) in a variety of roles and ended up playing a minor role in launching what is now the Eclipse VLJ aircraft. Now I work in the automotive industry - better money and perks but much less interesting I am also a sidelined private pilot (Cessna 152, 172) - I hope to get back to it someday! | |||||||||||||

| Re: Membership involvement in production or flying of aircraft I have been working at the French Civil Aviation Administration since 1992 : At the AIS from 1992 to 1996 (International Notam Office) ; then at the DGAC (French FAA) headquarter from 1996 to 1999 (ICAO affairs). Now, I am at Brest ATCC, where I have been working at the Quality of Service and Safety Division since 2000. I also used to be a keen private pilot (Rallye, DR400, TB10, PA28) but other financial priorities led me to suspend flying in 2001. | |||||||||||||
