"Part of Marshall Aerospace"

Meet the New Airport Director...

14 July 2008

Airport Director“I’m most grateful for the opportunity to be part of the Marshall Aerospace team and the past three years here have been absolutely great. While I spent 30 years in the aviation world as a pilot and leader in the US Air Force, I still have much to learn from everyone at Marshall Aerospace and cannot think of a better place to continue my appreciation of working with people in aviation. My new duties as Director, Airport Operations and Development are particularly thrilling. The people, the challenges and indeed the whole environment are exciting! It’s exactly where I want to be. We face many tough challenges and now have wonderful opportunities to fine tune our team’s organisational structure and Airport brand so that we are best prepared to exploit a variety of business ventures on the horizon. The opening of our new Marshall Business Aviation facilities this autumn is a good example. This opportunity and others now upon us are unique and will help shape our future. Together we face a new era as we build upon our already strong Marshall Aerospace reputation. I am thrilled to participate in these exciting times and will do everything I can to contribute in meaningful ways to successfully drive our Marshall Team agenda forward.”
