I have owned a Gullwing since 1971 and I joined the Gull Wing Group the same year. I currently serve on the Board of Directors, the Technical Committee, and the Wiki Committee. My background is a PhD in mechanical engineering and a career of building precision gyroscopes and guidance systems at Honeywell and Systron Donner.
During my school years, I received great training by skilled mechanics at my dad's truck dealership and I do all of the work on my Gullwing. I was drawn to the Gullwing after developing a great respect for the design of the 300 SL and the remarkable Mercedes-Benz team that built it.
The Gull Wing Group has always played an important role in my Gullwing experience. I always watch for the StarLetter and enjoy every word. I also enjoy every minute spent with the Gull Wing Group and its very diverse members.
I have been involved in the Gull Wing Group Talk site and the development of the GWG Wiki site. My board service reflects my desire to contribute back to the GWG some of the time and energy that was contributed to me by other members over the past 37 years.
