Upon return to UK from Germany I took up the role of field based Applications Engineer, a unique role in Gore at the time. I retained many of my previous Skyflex commitments acting as Product Specialist for Europe and beyond.During this time we started to penetrate a leading aircraft OEM and its partners with new products on many levels.In October 2008 I took a new role covering the EMI products portfolio for Europe and beyond. Again acting more like a Product Specialist, my commitment was the defence and aerospace sector where I learned much about EMI shielding and electronics packaging.

Based in Germany, I held global responsibility for product line profit and loss. The role included sales, marketing, manufacturing, quality assurance and new product development responsibility in a flat matrix organisation.Key achievements were, the five fold increase in sales whilst increasing absolute profitability, driving the development of new products that have the potential to transform aircraft manufacturing and the implementation of a robust quality environment that achieved very positive feedback during audit.

During ten years at British Airways, I attained the responsibility of approved CAA design signatory (AD458) with respect to B757, B767 and A320 Airframe Structures. Other key achievements and roles include,* Devised and implemented a robust measurement method for the calculation of aircraft maintenance savings based on current and planned aircraft utilisation at British Airways Engineering.* Innovator for an industry first procedure to consolidate aircraft structural inspection programmes. Adopted by Boeing, the philosophy was incorporated into new generation aircraft Maintenance Planning Documents.* Technical team leader during recovery of structurally damaged HS748/ATP, BAC1-11, B757 and B747 aircraft in Asia, Europe and North America.* Seconded to British Airways Maintenance Cardiff as Technical Support Leader for the first B747 Section 41 modification accomplished in UK, completed March 1995.* Seconded to Air Hong Kong, in Hong Kong, for three months in 1991 as Structures Development Engineer responsible for ageing B707 and B747 freighter aircraft.* Posted to HAECO, Hong Kong in 1991 and 1992/3 for nine and seven months respectively, to provide technical engineering support for the British Airways Boeing 747-136 Ageing Aircraft Programme.* Member of the BAC 1-11 Ageing Aircraft Structures Working Group, the B757/767 Structures Working Group, BAe ATP Maintenance Review Board and Concorde Re-Life Structures Working Group.

Upon completion of my apprenticeship at BAe, I took the role in the design department looking after the ageing Bloodhound SAM system. Principle activities were the specification of new materials and products due to obsolescence. The role was diverse in that is covered airframe maintenance and repair and, the ground power and test equipment which was a hydraulic based system with a pneumatic control and monitoring system.Key achievements were,* Being made project leader so early in my career for the implementation of a new ground test control and monitoring system developed in conjunction with the Swiss Air Force.* Devised a bench test system for the above.* Installed and commissioned the new system at RAF West Raynham.
