Aircraft systems, structures and powerplants, Frame gas and steam turbines, turbine generators and support systems. Engineering and project management.

My Aviation career began in the US Air Force, and was stationed in Japan, Texas, Alaska, and Maryland. After the service, I worked for McDonnell Douglas/Boeing in contract maintenance, aircraft construction, and product support engineering.  I spent a few years with the US government working for the Defense Logistics Agency as procurement quality assurance, and for NASA as a research systems integration technician and aircraft configuration manager. I have extensive engineering and field experience with power generation gas/steam turbines and turbine generators.
