I continue to support Aircraft Appliances and Equipment (AAE), Ltd of Brampton, Ontario as their Business Development Manager in Ottawa. My focus is on the Canadian Surface Combatant (CSC) project and other opportunities associated with the HALIFAX Class, VIC Class and Aviation R&O at DND. AAE is looking forward to supporting Irving Shipbuilding and OEMs whose equipment will be included in the CSC. I also continue to help AAE with their VIC Class submarine valve replacement and R & O activities and in developing new relationships with OEMs looking for Aviation R&O support for Future Fighter Capability Project, Future Air Crew Training and other projects.

I'm also assisting AAE's sister company in the UK, Aeronautical & General Instruments (AGI) to finalize the sale of their HELIVAS flight deck lighting system to DND for the HAL Class and market their other naval lighting and meteorological systems, some of which will also be included in the CSC project. 

The AAE/AGI team is a great group work with and I'm looking forward to helping them on CSC and other opportunities.
